  • Lotions and cutaneous solutions/emulsions for a label-led treatment approach
  • Creme rinse treatments for convenient in-shower use

How to choose the right option

  • Check suitability first: age guidance and warnings vary by product, especially for babies and young children.
  • Choose a format you’ll apply correctly: full coverage and correct timing matter more than “stronger” claims.
  • Plan for follow-up: re-checking and repeat steps may be needed if the label instructs it.
  • Consider sensitivities: if there’s eczema, asthma, pregnancy/breastfeeding, or previous reactions, ask a pharmacist before using.
  • Avoid doubling up: don’t mix treatments unless the product information (or a healthcare professional) advises it.

FAQs

What are nits and how do they differ from head lice?

Nits are head lice eggs that stick to hair shafts, usually close to the scalp. Head lice are the live insects that move through the hair.

Do I need to treat if I can only see nits?

Not always. Some nits may be old or empty. Check carefully for live lice and follow a structured routine of checking and combing, using any treatment exactly as directed.

Which format should I choose: spray, lotion, rinse, or comb?

Choose the option you can use accurately. Treatments (sprays/lotions/rinses) are used for active infestations, while combing supports removal and follow-up checks. Repellent sprays are commonly used as part of prevention routines.

How do I reduce the chance of reinfestation?

Regular checking, prompt treatment when needed, and avoiding head-to-head contact can help reduce spread in households and schools. Follow product guidance for any repeat steps.

Who should ask a pharmacist before using head lice treatments?

Speak to a pharmacist if you’re treating a baby or young child, if someone is pregnant or breastfeeding, if there’s asthma or sensitive skin, or if you’re unsure which product is suitable.

When should I seek medical advice?

Get advice if infestations keep returning despite correct use, or if there’s significant irritation. Seek urgent help if there are signs of infection (spreading redness, swelling, pus), fever, or you’re worried about a child’s wellbeing.

Important: This information is for general guidance only and does not replace medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always read and follow the product label and leaflet. If symptoms are severe, unusual, or persistent, speak to a pharmacist, NHS service, or your GP. In an emergency, call 999 or attend A&E.
