Description

What is Hedrin Lotion?

Hedrin Lotion is a clinically proven head lice treatment formulated with Dimeticone, a physical-acting ingredient that suffocates and kills lice without using harsh pesticides. Suitable for adults and children over 6 months, this cutaneous solution can be applied directly to the scalp without the need for a prescription.

Head lice (also known as nits) are common in school-age children and families. They’re not caused by poor hygiene and can affect anyone through close contact. For NHS guidance, visit the NHS website on head lice.

How Hedrin Lotion Works

The active ingredient Dimeticone works by coating and suffocating lice and eggs, effectively killing them through a physical process rather than chemical poisoning. This means lice cannot develop resistance.

Key Ingredients:

  • Dimeticone – Physically covers and drowns head lice.

  • Cyclomethicone 5 – Acts as a carrier that evaporates after application, leaving Dimeticone on the scalp.

How to Use Hedrin Lotion

Follow these Hedrin Lotion instructions carefully to ensure effective results and prevent reinfestation.

Step-by-Step Directions:

  1. Apply Hedrin Lotion evenly to dry hair, ensuring the scalp and hair are fully covered.

  2. Massage thoroughly from roots to tips.

  3. Allow hair to dry naturally.

  4. Leave the lotion on for at least 8 hours or overnight.

  5. Wash hair with normal shampoo, rinse thoroughly, and dry.

  6. Repeat after 7 days to kill any newly hatched lice.

Tip: Treat all household members with visible lice at the same time to prevent reinfestation.
