Pharmacodynamics

Pedikulen Ultra is an anti-lice drug that comes in the form of a lotion, spray and shampoo with slightly different composition, but the active ingredient is 6% anise oil . It has a nerve effect on parasites. Causes the death of adult parasites. The oil penetrates well through the chitinous cover and into the respiratory tract. Alcohol in this case speeds up this process.

In addition, anise oil breaks down the sticky substance that nits hold onto your hair, making it easier to comb out. It is important that anise oil is not toxic to the child and this is its advantage over products containing chemicals. Also, there is no parasite resistance to it, so the effectiveness is not lost.

The shampoo contains liquid petroleum jelly , which coats the parasites, blocking the access of oxygen. Has a jasmine scent.

Treatment begins with a lotion, spray or shampoo - it depends on preferences and there is no big difference in effectiveness.

When the exposure time is maintained, adults and nymphs die, and the nits lose their stability. The procedure ends by combing out the dead parasites and nits with a comb, which has an optimal distance between the teeth for this - 0.9 mm. After the procedures, you can apply a conditioner spray. It facilitates combing, soothes the scalp (it contains jojoba oil ), restores the lost shine and elasticity of the hair.
