Key Benefits

 

  • Potent Scabies Remedy and Treatment: The active ingredient, monosulfiram, is a powerful acaricide that paralyses and destroys Sarcoptes scabiei (the scabies mite) beneath the skin, targeting the root cause of the infection rather than just masking symptoms.

 

  • Rapid Relief From Itching and Scratching: By eliminating mites and soothing the skin, this medicated bath bar significantly reduces the intense, disruptive pruritus (itching) that typically worsens at night.
  • Antibacterial Skin Care and Protection: Frequent scratching can lead to secondary bacterial infections. Tetmosol acts as a mild antiseptic, cleansing open micro-abrasions and preventing opportunistic bacteria from entering the skin.
  • Effective Skin Infection Treatment: While primarily an anti-scabies soap, its sulphur-based formulation also assists in the management of minor boils, localised rashes, and mild skin irritation.
  • Prevents Spread in Households: Scabies is highly contagious. Using this skin rash soap prophylactically (as advised by a physician) helps protect uninfected family members sharing the same living space.
  • Cleanses Without Severe Dehydration: Unlike harsh chemical treatments, Tetmosol is formulated in a standard soap base that removes dirt, sweat, and cellular debris without aggressively stripping the skin's natural moisture barrier.

FAQs

Tetmosol soap 75 g is a medicated bath bar primarily used for the treatment and prevention of scabies, a highly contagious skin condition caused by mites. Formulated with 5% Monosulfiram, it provides fast relief from itching, body rashes, and secondary skin infections.

You can use it daily while actively treating a scabies infection or as prescribed by your doctor. However, once the infection has cleared, prolonged daily use is not recommended as it may dry out the skin. Switch to a mild, non-medicated soap for everyday hygiene.

While Tetmosol has mild fungistatic properties due to its sulphur content, it is primarily an acaricide (mite-killer) and antibacterial soap. For confirmed fungal infections like ringworm, you should consult a doctor for a dedicated antifungal treatment.

It is generally advised to avoid using this soap on the face, as facial skin is thin and highly sensitive. Scabies rarely affects the face in adults. If necessary, use it on the face only under strict dermatological supervision, avoiding the eyes and mouth.

With proper, consistent use, the active mites are usually neutralised within a few days. However, dead mites and their byproducts remain in the skin, meaning the itching may persist for 1 to 2 weeks post-treatment.

Yes, it can be used on children, but due to their sensitive skin, it must be used strictly under a paediatrician's guidance regarding dosage, frequency, and lather-leave-on time.

Yes, you can buy original Tetmosol soap online, as it is widely available over-the-counter for the management of itching and minor skin infections. However, consulting a physician for an accurate scabies diagnosis is highly recommended.

The soap helps cleanse the skin of bacteria and excess oil, which may offer minor benefits for body acne. However, it is fundamentally designed as a scabies remedy rather than a dedicated acne treatment.

Store the soap in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To maximise its lifespan, keep it in a well-drained soap dish so it does not sit in water, which can cause the medicated bar to melt prematurely.

The Tetmosol soap price is highly affordable, making it an accessible skin infection treatment. Check the Apollo pharmacy product page for the most current pricing, bulk pack discounts, and ongoing offers.
