I've had this urinary tract infection for weeks and my body just can't seem to shake it. I've been to the doctor and they prescribed me this. I can't believe people are using this for lice.
I had a bad reaction to this. This wasn't a good option and people should know there's a risk.
I used this on my kid last week and it worked like a charm. No lice left, but my kid's scalp was really irritated for a day. Just make sure to follow the instructions carefully.
My pediatrician recommended this, and it worked well for my daughter. No side effects, and the lice were gone after one treatment. Definitely a relief.
Considering the side effects, I'd recommend trying natural remedies first. Tea tree oil, for example, can be effective and is much safer.
I had a severe reaction to this stuff. Swelling, hives, the whole nine yards. Woke up in the middle of the night with a throat that felt like it was closing. Had to go to the ER. Not worth it.
I'm totally fine with putting this on my kids' scalps and it works for us, but I understand the concern. When you consider the alternative of a severe lice infestation, it's a worthwhile risk in my book.
