Eurax is a lifesaver for anyone unfortunate enough to be afflicted with one of the dreadful permethrin resistant scabies varients that are spreading like wildfire atm. It will not eliminate this horrible infestation but it stops the unbearable itch and is very soothing. It is also affordable and available in sufficiently large quantities. Do not resort to corticosteroids, they are making it all much worse! Use Eurax instead. The antiitch gel is also very good and can be used as often as needed, whereas you have to limit the use of the cream.
