Nix
Kills lice and their unhatched eggs with usually only one application.
Protects against head lice reinfestation for 14 days. Leaves
hair manageable and easy to comb. Head lice live on the scalp
and lay small white eggs (nits) on the hair shaft close to the
scalp. The nits are most easily found on the nape of the neck
or behind the ears. All personal headgear, scarf's, coats, and
bed linen should be disinfected by machine washing in hot water
and drying, using the hot cycle of a dryer for at least 20 minutes.
Personal articles of clothing or bedding that cannot be washed
may be dry-cleaned, sealed in a plastic bag for a period of
about 2 weeks, or sprayed with a product specifically designed
for this purpose. Personal combs and brushes may be disinfected
by soaking in hot water (above 130F) for 5 to 10 minutes. Thorough
vacuuming of rooms inhabited by infected patients is recommended.
Directions:
Nix Creme Rinse should be used after hair has been washed with
your regular shampoo, rinsed with water and towel dried.
A sufficient amount should be applied to saturate hair and scalp
(especially behind the ears and on the nape of the neck).
Leave on hair for 10 minutes but no longer. Rinse with water.
A single application is usually sufficient. If live lice are
observed seven days or more after the first application of this
product, a second treatment should be given.
For proper head lice management, remove nits with the nit comb
provided.
