What medicine kills scabies?

Answer 1

Scabies, being mites (arachnids), are highly resistant to most insectacides, especially considering that they burrow in subcutaneously. So any toxin you use will have to traver the dermis intact, and without making you sick. In the old days, before the banning, DDT was used effectively for this. Allopathic remedies include: permethrin 5%-- a scabicide. You apply it topically and leave it on for 12-24 hours. One does should be enough, although you can do two if symptoms recurr. Homepathic remedies include making a paste of neem (which I am told is Azadiracta indica and with which I have no experience whatsoever) and Turmeric. Apply this paste to infected region for --->>>FIFTEEN DAYS!!!!<<<---. Note that scabies is contagious, and tends to infect other areas of your body, so 15 days is -- to me at least -- extreme. And is that weren't enough, Turmeric is a natural yellow dye. Scabies is stunningly uncomfortable. The saying is, "they won't kill you, and that's the BAD news". It's also contagious. I'm going to recommend the Allopathic route on this one, although I have included the homepathic method for those that request it, with that sort of willpower and who love of the color yellow :} Please excuse me for answering with allopathic and homeopathic remedies. Just want to help here.

Answer 2

An external remedy is a very stong decoction (tea) made of tansy and used either in a bath or sponged over the body. Scrupulous hygiene is essential in the treatment of the patient and their clothing, bedding, etc. Internally a tea of either Gentain or Scullcap, which work as nervines (taken after the scabies has subsided) helps to bring the body back to a state of ease.

Answer 3

None, you need real medicine for that.
