Pernil 5% Cream 30gm belongs to the class of pyrethroids. It is an antiparasite drug used to treat infections caused by eggs, lice, and mites. It is used mainly used in the treatment of pediculosis and scabies. Pediculosis is the infestation of lice in the hairy parts of the body, especially the scalp. It occurs most commonly in children above five years of age and spreads by head-to-contact. Scabies is a skin infection caused by mites. It is contagious and spreads from one person to another with physical contact. Patients with pediculosis and scabies experience rashes and persistent itching in the infected area, which worsens at night.

Children below six years, pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers should consult a doctor before using Permethrin. The infected area should be kept clean and dry before applying the drug.

Pediculosis and scabies are parasitic infections. Pediculosis is the infection caused by the parasite Pediculus humanus. It is an ectoparasite and feeds on blood. It infects hairy body parts such as the scalp and pubic area. In this condition, lice attach to the scalp and lay eggs at the base of the hair. Scabies is an infection caused by the mite, Sarcoptes scabiei. The mites attach themselves to the skin and cause skin rashes, intense itching, and burning sensation. It usually affects the knees, elbows, breasts, thighs, pubic area, and webbing between the fingers.
