Hedrin 4% Lotion is a clear, colourless solution. It contains Dimeticone 4% w/w as the active ingredient. Dimeticone is a silicone compound, widely used in the cosmetics industry, which is highly effective against lice.
Hedrin works in a revolutionary way. Instead of using an insecticide to poison the head lice, Hedrin uses Dimeticone to kill them with a non-chemical action. One of the largest clinical studies ever conducted on head lice has proven that Hedrin is an effective killer of lice. The active ingredient, Dimeticone, coats the insects like a shrink-wrap which kills them. Even more then it , Hedrin can be used again and again because, unlike pesticide treatments, Hedrin mode of action means that lice do not develop resistance to it. And because Hedrin is not absorbed by the skin it is suitable for use by everyone in the family from the age of 6 months upwards.
Directions
Hedrin Lotion x 150ml
Apply sufficient lotion evenly over DRY hair ensuring that the scalp is fully covered. Work into the hair spreading the liquid evenly from the roots to tips. Allow the hair to dry naturally. Leave on the hair for at least 8 hours or overnight. Wash the hair with normal shampoo, rinse thoroughly with water and dry. It is important that Hedrin Lotion is applied again after seven days to deal with any lice which may hatch in that time. Failure to repeat the treatment may result in the return of a louse infestation. Children under 6 months should only be treated under medical supervision. When using Hedrin on broken skin, slight irritation may occur. Sometimes application may cause flaking of the scalp, itching and irritation around the eyes.

Security Question: What is 2012+05 =
by Pharmacy Shopper on Fri May 2012 I bought the Hedrin Lotion x 150ml and it turned to be a great product. There are a few Headlice Treatment products out there but I highly recommend Hedrin . I found Hedrin Lotion x 150ml much cheaper onOneClickPharmacy and saved quite a bit.
