Abstract

Skabies adalah penyakit kulit yang disebabkan oleh infestasi tungau Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. Skabies umumnya menyebabkan gatal intens yang berhubungan dengan garukan, mengganggu tidur yang berdampak pada performa di sekolah ataupun pekerjaan, dan akhirnya berdampak pada produktivitas. Beberapa penelitian menggunakan albendazole oral sebagai alternatif terapi skabies karena penggunaan topikal dinilai kurang praktis.
