NYDA is a topical revolutionary treatment indicated for eradication of head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis). Extremely safe to use, it penetrates deeply into the tiniest parts of the lice, larvae and also the egg’s breathing system, replacing the air, and therefore provoking death in all three stages, from eggs to adult lice.

Head lice infestations are a significant problem encountered by families around the world. Persistent itching, the main symptom associated with head lice infestation, is triggered by head lice sucking blood several times a day, during which they inject an anticoagulant saliva into the scalp. After initial infestation, it can often take up to several weeks for the immunologic reaction to appear. First of all, red papules become visible on the scalp, which may be followed by nettle-like reactions.

The effectiveness of NYDA is based on the product’s unique physical mode of action. As opposed to the pesticide treatments on the market, the “point of attack” of this mode of action is the insect’s respiratory system. The unique physical properties of NYDA, including the viscosity and slow spreading properties of the solution, allow the product to readily flow into the breathing system of all developmental stages of the insect, thus leading irreversibly to the insects suffocation and death. Extensive clinical data supports the efficacy of NYDA which has been reported to reach 97.2%, thought to be the highest of any product presently commercialized in Canada.

NYDA est simple à utiliser, car le vaporisateur à pompe de 50 ml permet de répartir la formule facilement, de sorte que les cheveux sont complètement couverts.
