Licerid Soap 75gm is utilised to manage scabies, a parasitic skin infestation. It falls under the category of insecticides, specifically synthetic pyrethroids used in medication.

This soap is effective in managing pediculosis, commonly known as lice infestation.

Its formulation allows for easy application over the entire body, which is particularly useful when large areas are affected by these conditions.

Before starting this soap, you must consult your doctor regarding the correct dosage and frequency. It's crucial to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medication to prevent complications. If you notice any side effects, notify your doctor immediately and continue applying the soap for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Itching or tingling sensation: This is a feeling of prickling or slight discomfort on your skin.
Erythema: This refers to a condition where your skin turns red, usually because of irritation or inflammation.
Scaling: This involves shedding dead skin cells from the surface of your skin.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Licerid Soap 75gm. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Licerid Soap 75gm contains permethrin (1%), which works on your body in the following ways:

Acts on nerve cell membranes: Permethrin targets the nerve cell membrane of mites and lice. It prolongs the activation of sodium channels within these parasites.
Paralyses and kills parasites: Permethrin's extended activation of sodium channels results in delayed repolarisation, which leads to paralysis and, eventually, death of the parasites.
Low mammalian toxicity: Permethrin has low toxicity levels in mammals, including humans, making it safe for use. Humans sodium channels aren't as sensitive to permethrin as those of insects, increasing its safety profile.
