Scabies is an itchy skin condition caused by tiny mites that burrow into the skin, leading to an intense rash and itching, often worse at night. It spreads through close contact. GetMyMeds offers treatments, reviewed by our clinicians, to help clear scabies.

Who Is It For
Scabies treatment is suitable for people with confirmed or suspected scabies, and it is usually recommended that household members and close contacts are treated at the same time, even if they have no symptoms. Treatment is often applied to the whole body. Because scabies spreads easily, prompt and thorough treatment helps prevent it returning.
FAQ
Why do my close contacts need treating too? Scabies spreads through close physical contact, so treating everyone in the household at the same time helps stop the infestation passing back and forth.
Why am I still itching after treatment? Itching can continue for a few weeks after successful treatment as the skin recovers. If new burrows or rash appear, you may need further assessment.
How can I stop scabies spreading? Washing bedding, towels and clothing at a high temperature and treating contacts promptly helps reduce the chance of reinfection.
