Treatment of scabies (Sarcoptes scabiei infestation)

The combination of permethrin and cetrimide works by killing lice and scabies mites through different mechanisms. Permethrin acts as a neurotoxin, interfering with the nervous system of insects and mites, leading to paralysis and death. Cetrimide acts as a surfactant, disrupting the cell membranes of these parasites, causing them to die.
