† For drugs in FDA pregnancy category B, there is no evidence of risk in humans. Drugs in pregnancy category C have had toxic effects in studies of animals, but the results of studiesin humans are inadequate.

After the patient dries off after a tepid bath or shower, the product should be applied from head to toe (because scalp involvement may be a cause of relapse), including the groin. Special care should be taken at the mucocutaneous junctions to avoid contact between the agent and the mucosa.
§ Permethrin has been approved for use in infants two months of age or older. When a nursing mother with scabies infestation of the breasts has to be treated with permethrin, she should bottle-feed her infant and discard pumped breast milk until residual cream has been thoroughly washed off.
¶ No alcoholic beverages should be consumed for at least 48 hours after application, because of a potential disulfiram-like effect of the interaction.
∥ Pyrethrin is in FDA pregnancy category B. Since allethrin belongs to the family of pyrethrins, it too should probably be in category B.
** The single dose of 200 μg per kilogram equals a dose of 12 mg for a person weighing 60 kg. The absorption of ivermectin may be improved if taken with a fatty meal. The regimen is not approved for children weighing less than 15 kg or for pregnant or lactating women. The drug could be useful in patients with classic scabies, and multiple doses in combinationwith topical therapy could be useful in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome who have extensive scabies and in patients with crusted scabies.
