How long does Scabion Forte treatment take?
For scabies, apply daily (preferably in the evening) for 3–5 days depending on clinical response. For pruritus relief, apply as needed until itching resolves. Follow your doctor's specific guidance.

Can Scabion Forte be used during pregnancy?
Pregnant women should only use Scabion Forte if it is clearly necessary, as determined by a doctor. The product should be applied with caution and on medical advice only during pregnancy.
