Pouxit Repellent helps prevent head lice infestations or reinfestations of the scalp. It is recommended for adults as well as children ages 3 and up
Head liceis the second most common infection in schools after respiratory infections. Nearly 85% of school-aged children are likely to get head lice at least once during their school years.
Head liceare present year-round, but there are seasonal spikes that coincide with the start of each new school year. Often, just one case is enough to trigger an entire outbreak.
Using a repellent helps protect our children fromlice infestation or reinfestationduring outbreak periods.
Pouxit Preventive Anti-Lice Repellent Spray 75 ml is a lotion that prevents head lice infestations in adults and children over 3 years of age.
This repellent keeps lice away and reduces the risk of reinfestation. It is ideal during periods of spread at school, which frequently occur at the start of the school year.
It contains Citriodiol®, a naturally derived repellent with proven effectiveness
Citriodiol is extracted from the Eucalyptus citriodora plant (or lemon eucalyptus). This naturally derived substance has demonstrated its repellent effectiveness against several biting insects (lice, mosquitoes, ticks, etc.).
We also offer POUXIT Special Environment Plant-Based Spray 150ml at the best price in our online pharmacy.
