Clinical pharmacology.

PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES:

Ectoparasiticides, also used against scabies.

АТС code P03A X05.

Remov® contains dimethicone, which is used in many pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. A 4% substance concentration has been found to affect the physico-physiological activity of lice. It is less effective in its ovicidal activity, therefore two applications 7 days apart are required.


The drug does not contain neurotoxic organophosphate insecticides, therefore it does not affect the specific enzymes of lice. Remov® has an effect on parasites by a physical


process : Tt covers the louse and disrupts the ability of its organism to maintain water balance, so that the treated insects fail to excrete surplus water. The drug activity is not diminished in insecticide-resistant head lice.


The preparation is applied topically on the affected surface, but its dermal absorption is insignificant or absent.
