LiceMD® is introducing pediatric doctors and nurses to a pesticide-free breakthrough treatment that will help take control of lice outbreaks while restoring households with some peace of mind! Why the peace of mind? Because LiceMD's primary ingredient is dimethicone, a safe and effective synthetic lubricant that is odorless, non-irritating to skin and scalp and hypoallergenic. With the introduction of LiceMD®, you can not only now say good-bye to head lice, but you can also bid farewell to pesticides.

As you know, head lice is one of the most contagious conditions among children, only second to the common cold. As the weather gets warmer, schools close for the summer and kids venture off to camp, they are once again faced with the risk of catching head lice. Many kids do not realize that head lice can be spread whenever there is direct contact between the head or hair with an infested individual, as well as by sharing personal articles like hats, towels, brushes, helmets and hair ties, which are all part of a camper's daily life!

In order to educate parents about treating head lice and preventing future outbreaks, Combe Inc. has recently launched an educational Web site, www.LiceMD.com. The Web site includes the latest research, frequently asked questions, a "How to Instructional" video, and so much more.
