How Nixiper Cream works
Nixiper Cream is a synthetic pyrethroid that acts on the nerve cells of scabies mites, causing paralysis and death of the mites and their eggs. It works by disrupting the normal function of nerve cell membranes in scabies mites. This action helps eliminate the mites responsible for scabies and allows the skin to heal.

Apply a thin layer to the affected area as advised by a doctor. For external use only; avoid contact with eyes, mouth and broken skin unless directed.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
