Medicinal Benefits

Crotorax Cream belongs to a class of medicines called scabicides, and antipruritics used to treat scabies and reduce itching associated with certain skin conditions. Crotorax Cream contains Crotamiton, which works by killing the mites which cause scabies. Irritation from the mites leads to severe itching and small bumps/blister filled with fluid/pus. It also helps relieve itching related to scabies and other skin conditions. Crotorax Cream produces a cooling effect by evaporating from the skin. This cooling effect helps to divert your body's attention away from the itching. Due to this cooling effect, it is also effective for the relief of sunburn.
