Format and Ingredients
Dosage
Adults, the elderly and children over 6 months: Head lice: apply to dry hair, ensuring no part of the scalp is left uncovered. Work into the hair, spreading evenly from roots to tips. Leave hair to dry naturally in a warm, well ventilated room. After 12 hours, or the next day, shampoo hair as normal. Rinse hair and comb while wet to remove dead lice and eggs (nits). Repeat treatment after 7 days. Pubic lice: apply to entire skin surface, paying particular attention to all hairy areas including beards and moustaches. Avoid any other areas above the neck. Leave on for at least 1 hour, but preferably overnight, before washing off. Repeat treatment after 7 days. Scabies: apply to entire skin surface. In adults it may not be necessary to apply above the neck but children under 2 years should have a thin film of the liquid applied to the scalp, face and ears, avoiding the eyes and mouth. Do not wash off or bathe for 24 hours. If hands or any other body parts must be washed during this period, treatment must be re-applied to those areas immediately. Repeat treatment after 7 days. Not to be used more than once a week and for more than 3 consecutive weeks. Family members and close contacts
