Benzyl Benzoate is used to treat ectoparasitic infestations such as scabies and pediculosis. At concentrations of 10 to 20% v/v, it is toxic to Sarcoptes scabiei as well as to lice. In laboratory studies, the scabies mite is killed within 5 minutes of exposure to benzyl benzoate. Its mechanism of action is not fully understood, but given its effects on vertebrates, it is thought to act on the nervous system of the parasite.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

There is inadequate evidence of the safety of Benzyl benzoate in human pregnancy, but it has been widely used without apparent ill consequence. Nevertheless, it should not be used during pregnancy unless considered essential. Breast feeding should be suspended during treatment with Benzyl benzoate. Feeding may be restarted after the emulsion has been washed off the body.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Adults: Scabies: After a hot bath and drying, apply Scabisol to the whole body except the head and face. If the application is thorough, one treatment should be enough, but the chance of failure is reduced if a second application is made within 5 days of the first. Alternatively, Scabisol can be applied to the whole body, except the head and face, on three occasions at 12-hourly intervals. The patient takes a hot bath 12 hours after the last application and changes into clean clothes and sheets. Pediculosis: Coat the affected region with Scabisol, then wash it off 24 hours later with soap and water. In severe cases this procedure may need to be repeated two or three times. An examination should always be made a week after the last treatment to confirm that the infestation has cleared. Use in children: The preparation can be diluted with an equal quantity of water for older children and with three parts of water for babies.
