what is the best cure for pubic lice?
Question:
Answers:
Shave it off.
Other Answers:
Shaving the hair is unnecessary. Recommended treatment regimens are either a 1 percent lindane shampoo applied for four minutes and then washed off, a 1 percent lindane lotion applied for 2 hours and then washed off, or a 1 percent permethrin cream rinse (Nix) which is washed off after 10 minutes. Lindane requires a prescription. It should not be used by people with extreme dermatitis because it could cause seizures. Also, lindane resistance has been reported in parts of the United States. You can buy other pesticide treatments, containing pyrethrin with piperonyl butoxide (A-200, Rid), without a prescription. They are applied for 10 minutes and then washed off. If you are allergic to ragweed, you should avoid these products. There are also products for inanimate objects such as furniture. These should not be used on humans or animals. If you have lice clinging to your eyelashes, do not use any of these pesticide treatments to get rid of them. Instead, put some Vaseline on the edges of your lids twice a day for 10 days, which will smother the lice. You can also pluck them and the nits off with tweezers.
