Advantage Pharmacy Elsternwick has been a trusted part of the Shepparton community since 1979. We are open 6 days a week from to be here when you need us the most. You can always speak with a pharmacist at Shepparton Amcal Pharmacy.
Our treatment uses the AirAlle heat device to kill the eggs and lice through dehydration and our topical solution further suffocates eggs and lice. Lice have become resistant to the pesticides in a lot of over the counter treatments.
We can't offer treatment to children under 4 years of age because we find they cannot handle the heat portion or stay still for the comb through. For a treatment to be effective the client must sit still and tolerate heat for approximately 25 minutes. The treatment altogether can take over an hour and we find young children don't cope well with sitting still for the entire duration.
Yes, our treatment is safe for pregnant women as we don't use any harsh chemicals. The topical solution we use for the final stage is a silicone based product, non-toxic and pesticide free.
We recommend customers do a comb out 1 week later to remove any stray eggs or dead bugs, these will not be viable. It can be hard to remove every single egg in one comb out so we do advise clients to do a follow up comb out for cosmetic purposes and for your own peace of mind that the lice life cycle has been broken.
