Permethrin Cream 5 %

Question

Asked for Male, 38 Years

Hello Doctor, I am nearing 2 week of treatment for scabies. I took 2 times Permetrin Cream along with Invermectin tablet. It was very effective, however after the first week .ie few days after second application.. new bumps/burrows, most of them small come and go .. it them moves to another near area.. only 3 to 4 bumps at a time. Might b because of reuse of my cloth/bedding.. can I got for a 3rd and 4th apply of Permetrin Cream 1 week apart to completely eliminate the mites or need some weeks of gap for starting with 3rd apply of cream. Wanted to know any side effects /safety. Thanks in advance
