Prevention of scabies
My colleague got diagnosed with scabies today. I was sitting in close contact with her and had also examined her rash. Is there any oral medication I can take to ensure I do not get it?

Tab Bandy Plus one tablet today and one tablet again after 10 days should be enough. I hope you do not have any drug allergies. If you are allergic to any medication please consult online with details or meet with a doctor before taking the medication. However if you develop itching in the future you can meet with the dermatologist to get it properly examined. Hope this was helpful.
