Preparations
Hycia
Hygiene is a quality quick-acting anti-nit drug, as well as head lice and head lice.
Pharmacodynamics
The main components of permethrin are synthetic pyrethroids, which have a weak toxicity and effective insecticidal properties. Therefore, acting as a neuromuscular toxin, it does not affect the body's toxic effects. The duration of the insecticidal action of permethrin is rather short, because under the influence of air it soon disappears - this avoids the risk of accumulation of this substance.
The detergent acts as a combination of sodium alkyl lefosulfate, as well as fatty acid alkyl amides - this gives the preparation foam-forming leaching properties. It should be noted that this substance does not have an irritant effect on the skin.
Acceleration of the process of detachment of nits from the hair occurs under the influence of acetic acid. This substance combines insecticidal and detergent properties.
Dosing and administration
The drug is intended for external topical use. The vial should be shaken before application. It should be wet the hair with warm water, then apply to it 15-20 grams of LS and rub it into the skin. Then you need to wait 10-15 minutes, and rinse the preparation with warm water. Dry hair must be combed with a special comb for combing the nits and lice. A week later, a re-treatment procedure is required. During the treatment course, it is allowed to conduct a maximum of 3 times.
