See full text

A composition for removal of lice ova or nits from the hair of human subjects comprises about 1-50% by weight of dimethylisosorbide (DMI) in an aqueous vehicle having a neutral to acidic pH. The composition is preferably in the form of a gel or a liquid shampoo, the shampoo preferably including an active pediculicidal or ovicidal agent. A method of removing lice ova from human hair comprises the application of the novel composition to the hair and subsequent removal thereof, e.g., by rinsing with water. Any unremoved ova can be physically dislodged by combing. The composition can also be included with a fine tooth nit comb in a kit for removal of lice ova from human hair.
