Perlice Cream

Product Overview

Perlice Cream is a medicated topical treatment containing the active ingredient Permethrin. It is formulated to effectively eliminate infestations of head lice and their eggs (nits) on the scalp and hair. Perlice Cream provides a safe and convenient solution for treating head lice infestations, offering relief from itching and discomfort associated with this common parasitic condition.

Uses

Perlice Cream is used to treat head lice infestations in adults and children aged 2 months and older. Head lice are small insects that infest the scalp and hair, causing itching and irritation. Permethrin, the active ingredient in Perlice Cream, works by paralyzing and killing the lice and their eggs upon contact. This medication is suitable for use in cases of both active infestation and as a preventative measure for individuals who have been exposed to lice.

How to Use

Before applying Perlice Cream, thoroughly wash the hair with shampoo and towel-dry until damp. Apply a sufficient amount of Perlice Cream to cover the entire scalp and hair, paying special attention to the back of the head and neck. Massage the cream into the hair and scalp, ensuring complete coverage from roots to ends. Leave the cream on for the recommended duration, typically 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Repeat the treatment after 7-10 days if necessary.

How it Works

Permethrin, the active ingredient in Perlice Cream, is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide that acts on the nervous system of lice and their eggs. Upon contact with Permethrin, lice are paralyzed and subsequently killed, while the eggs (nits) are prevented from hatching. This effectively eradicates the infestation and prevents re-infestation when used as directed. Perlice Cream provides a safe and efficient solution for eliminating head lice without causing harm to the scalp or hair.

Dosage and Administration

The dosage and administration of Perlice Cream depend on the individual’s age and the severity of the infestation. Follow the instructions provided on the product packaging or as directed by your healthcare provider. Avoid using more than the recommended amount of cream, as excessive application may increase the risk of side effects. If treating a child, ensure adult supervision to prevent accidental ingestion.

Benefits

The primary benefit of Perlice Cream is its effectiveness in eliminating head lice infestations, providing relief from itching and discomfort. It offers a convenient and non-invasive treatment option compared to alternative methods such as combing or chemical shampoos. Perlice Cream is easy to apply and generally well-tolerated, making it suitable for use in both adults and children. With proper use, Perlice Cream helps restore scalp health and promotes a lice-free environment.

Common Side Effects

Common side effects associated with the use of Perlice Cream may include mild skin irritation, such as redness, itching, or burning sensation at the application site. These side effects are usually temporary and resolve on their own within a few days. If skin irritation persists or worsens, discontinue use of the cream and consult your healthcare provider for further guidance.

Warnings

Before using Perlice Cream, inform your healthcare provider if you have any known allergies to Permethrin or other ingredients in the cream. Avoid using Perlice Cream on broken or inflamed skin, as it may cause further irritation. Do not apply Perlice Cream to the eyes or mucous membranes, and avoid inhaling the cream during application. Keep Perlice Cream out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental ingestion.

Storage Information

Store Perlice Cream at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the cream in its original packaging and tightly closed when not in use.
