Getting rid of these parasites is relatively simple. The most effective solution is to apply a lotion or shampoo with a high content of permethrin - 1%. It can be bought in stores or pharmacies without a prescription.
- Rinse and dry hair before shampooing.
- Apply treatment to the hair and scalp.
- Wait about 10 minutes and rinse with water.
- After washing, cleaning of the hair with a nit comb is necessary to facilitate removal of lice and nits.
- After 10 hours, perform another search for lice. If they appear to be active, check with your doctor before retreatment.
If this does not solve the problem, visit your doctor who will prescribe a stronger medication that must be used in accordance with the instructions.
