Study start date: October 2, 2025

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This study is focused on comparing two treatments for head lice infestations: Elimax Green Lotion with Emogreen and the Walgreens Lice Killing Shampoo. Head lice are a common problem that affects people of all ages, especially children. The study aims to determine which product is more effective and safer for treating head lice. The Elimax Green Lotion works by physically suffocating and dehydrating the lice and their eggs through its ingredients, which include a bio-alkane and beeswax. This research is important because it could provide a more effective solution for those suffering from head lice, improving comfort and reducing the time spent treating infestations. Participants in this study must be six months old or older and have a confirmed case of head lice. The study will follow guidelines for medical device clinical trials as per US regulations. Participants will use the product according to instructions, typically involving applying the treatment and using a lice comb. Researchers will monitor safety by checking for any skin or eye irritation and other adverse events. The goal is to ensure that the product not only works effectively but is also safe for users. By comparing the results of these two treatments, the study seeks to offer better guidance for people dealing with head lice.
