Crotamiton

A topical medicine against scabies and against itching of various origins, such as insect bites: it was patented in the late 1940s in Switzerland and is still used today as a cream or lotion. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities and other impurities.

Did you know?For decades its anti-itch effect remained unclear: a 2017 study suggests that it blocks TRPV4, an ion channel in sensory nerve fibres.
