Eurax Cream

Eurax Cream is a highly effective, dermatologically trusted topical antipruritic (anti-itch) medication. Specially formulated to provide prolonged relief, it rapidly calms irritated skin and stops the urge to scratch, allowing the skin to heal. It also possesses mild scabicidal properties, making it useful in treating scabies infestations.

  Quick Tips for Eurax Cream

  • Trim your fingernails short if managing intense itching to prevent accidental skin tearing and secondary bacterial infections from scratching.

    Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I use Eurax Cream on my face? It can be used carefully on the face to relieve localized itching, but keep it strictly away from your eyelids, eyes, and mouth.

  • Can it be used on infants? Eurax can be used for children under 3 years of age only under direct medical supervision and should not be applied more than once a day.

  • Why do I still itch after completing scabies treatment? This is completely normal. The "scabies itch" is an allergic response to the dead mites and can persist for 2 to 4 weeks after the mites have been completely eliminated. You can continue using Eurax for general itch relief during this recovery phase.
