Pediculifuge

A pediculifuge is a medicinal agent that is used to treat head lice. It is a topical preparation which is applied to the scalp and usually left on overnight. The agent contains active ingredients such as pyrethrins or permethrin which are insecticides that attack the nervous system of lice, causing paralysis and death. It also works by disrupting the lice's ability to feed on human blood, causing them to die from starvation. In addition, it can also help to break the cycle of louse infestation by killing eggs and larvae. It is important to follow the instructions on the label for the product when using a pediculifuge.
