Product Uses
Adults, the elderly and children aged 6 months and over: For treatment of head lice:
- Apply sufficient liquid to dry hair to ensure that no part of the scalp is left uncovered. Work into the hair spreading the liquid evenly from root to tip.
- Leave the hair to dry naturally in a warm but well ventilated room.
- After 12 hours, or the next day, if preferred, shampoo hair in the normal way.
- Rinse the hair and comb whilst wet to remove dead lice and eggs (nits) using a nit comb.
- The treatment should be repeated after 7 days
For treatment of Crab (pubic) lice:
- Apply to the entire skin surface.
- Pay particular attention to all hairy areas including beards and moustaches. Avoid any other areas above the neck.
- Leave on for at least 1 hour before washing but preferably leave on overnight. Wash off in the usual manner.
- The treatment should be repeated after 7 days.
For treatment of Scabies:
- Apply to the entire skin surface
- In adults it may not be necessary to apply above the neck. If used in children under the age of 2 years, a thin film of the liquid should be applied to scalp, face and on the ears but not inside the ears, avoiding the eyes and mouth.
- Do not wash off or bathe for 24 hours. If hands or any other parts must be washed during this period, the treatment must be reapplied to those areas immediately.
- The treatment should be repeated after 7 days. No special sterilisation of clothing is necessary, ordinary laundering or dry cleaning with hot iron pressing are sufficient. The infestation is cleared by the treatment. However, the itching and rash may persist for up to 7 days. An anti-irritant cream can be applied if necessary.
