| Full marks preparations
contain phenothrin, which is
used to treat head and pubic
lice infestation. Phenothrin
is an insecticide which kills
lice by interfering with the
insect's biological processes,
causing death of the insect
and the eggs. Phenothrin
solution should be applied to
the hair and scalp and left
for the recommended length of
time, to ensure that all the
eggs are treated. This is
eventually washed out and the
eggs removed from the scalp
using a special fine-toothed
nit comb. It is usually
recommended that family
members and close contacts be
treated at the same time, if
infected. In the event of
early re-infestation,
phenothrin preparations may be
re-applied, provided 7 days
have elapsed since the first
application. Full Marks is
available in a water based
(aqueous) solution - Full
Marks Liquid or an alcohol
based solution - Full Marks
Lotion and Mousse. Aqueous
solutions are generally
preferred in individuals
suffering from asthma or
eczema and particularly in
children, where alcoholic
fumes are best avoided.
