Understanding Lice
 
 
 
 
       
 

Head lice elimination requires a community-based effort. Healthcare professionals, especially pharmacists, are the community experts in head lice elimination. GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare is pleased to bring you detailed information on the management of head lice and counseling information for worried parents.

Head lice elimination often fails due to improper use of treatment products or re-infestation. Parents need to be counseled on the importance of following the treatment process: treat with a proven pediculiside (following directions exactly), removal of nits, and washing of clothing and bedding.
