    Skabi-Rid was developed out of need for a new, safer, more effective and simpler treatment for scabies. This condition affects more than 300 million people worldwide every year.

    Compliance in treating is essential as incomplete treatment leads to resistance, spreading of the disease and further morbidity. This application cures scabies with a single application. The formulation was developed by the Research Institute for Industrial Pharmacy, Potchefstroom.

    Active Ingredient:
    Skabi-Rid contains permethrin 5% (5g in 100g). Permethrin belongs to a group of toxins called the pyrethroids, synthetic derivatives of pyrethrins designed to be stable in ultraviolet light, whilst retaining the potent insecticidal properties.

    Pyrethrins originate from the chrysanthemum genus of plants originally from China, these plants were cultivated in China as a flowering herb as far back as the 15th century BC. About 200 years ago people living in central Asia discovered that dried, crushed flowers of certain chrysanthemums were toxic to insects.
