Short Description

Perlice Permethrin Cream Rinse 1% is a prescription anti-lice treatment used for managing head lice infestation.

Use as directed by your healthcare professional for effective head lice control and improved scalp hygiene.

Product Description

Perlice Permethrin Cream Rinse 1% w/w 60g is a prescription topical anti-lice treatment developed for the effective management of head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis). Based on the uploaded product images and standard pharmaceutical references, the product contains Permethrin 1% w/w, a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide widely recommended for treating head lice infestations.

Permethrin acts by interfering with the nervous system of lice, causing paralysis and death. It is effective against live lice and helps reduce the survival of newly hatched lice after treatment. Although the treatment may affect some eggs (nits), manual removal using a fine-toothed nit comb is generally recommended to improve treatment success.

Perlice Cream Rinse is designed for convenient application after washing the hair. The crème rinse spreads evenly over the scalp and hair, ensuring good coverage of affected areas. After leaving it on for the recommended duration, the hair should be rinsed thoroughly with water and combed carefully with a fine nit comb to remove dead lice and remaining nits.

To minimize the risk of reinfestation, close family members and household contacts should also be examined and treated if necessary. Personal items such as combs, brushes, pillowcases, hats and towels should be cleaned appropriately. Avoid sharing personal hair accessories during treatment.

The product is intended for external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, mouth and broken skin. If accidental contact occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Temporary mild itching, burning or scalp irritation may occur in some individuals after application. If severe irritation or allergic reactions develop, discontinue use and consult your healthcare professional.

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Use only as directed by your physician or according to the product instructions.
