Good morning. Scabies treatment involves 2 treatment courses of cream/medication usually separated by a week. It must be applied correctly as prescribed and simultaneously among all members living together along with other general measures regarding cleaning/isolation of clothing and surroundings. Treatment outcome is assessed only after the 2nd cycle by the treating dermatologist.
