Gamscaboma Lotion

Gamscaboma Lotion belongs to a class of antiparasitic drugs known as 'scabicides' (kills scabies mites) and pediculicides (kills lice). Gamscaboma Lotion primarily treats scabies in people for whom other medicines did not work. Gamscaboma Lotion is available usually in the topical form used to treat head lice. Scabies is a skin condition caused by mites known as Sarcoptes scabiei. It causes an itchy skin rash and is contagious (spreads from one person to another person).

Gamscaboma Lotion contains Lindane which works by killing scabies mites and their eggs by penetrating through the skin. Gamscaboma Lotion is used to kill mites but does not prevent scabies or recurring symptoms.

Gamscaboma Lotion is only for external use. Do not put Gamscaboma Lotion in your mouth. In case of accentual swallowing or contact with the mouth, contact the poison control center immediately as it may be poisonous if taken by mouth. Apply a very thin layer of Gamscaboma Lotion on the skin from the neck down. Apply Gamscaboma Lotion with a toothbrush under fingernails as scabies mites likely stay there and throw away that toothbrush. Some people may experience skin dry skin, skin rash, itching, or burning sensation of the skin. Most of these side effects of Gamscaboma Lotion do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

If you are known to be allergic to Gamscaboma Lotion or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Gamscaboma Lotion. Do not apply Gamscaboma Lotion on lots of broken skin, crusted (scabby), or open sores on the skin. You should wash Gamscaboma Lotion from the body thoroughly after 8-12 hours using warm water as leaving it on the skin for a prolonged time may lead to fits and death. Gamscaboma Lotion should not be used to treat premature babies and people who have had any seizure episodes (fits). Gamscaboma Lotion may be absorbed by the whole body and cause central nervous system toxicity resulting in disorientation, dizziness, and fits. Inform your doctor if you have AIDS/HIV or liver cirrhosis, alcoholism, history of head injury, or spinal cord or brain tumor before taking Gamscaboma Lotion.
