3 comments about RID Lice Killing Shampoo (Available in 2-oz or 4-oz).

  1. This product and its comb are useless. The pharmacist and pediatrician later explained that most types of head lice have developed resistance to OTC products like Rid and Nix. The shampoo kills nothing and the plastic comb fills with gunk and is impossible to clean, much less sterilize. It almost seems like a [...], since the instructions say you will have to keep buying and reapplying more. I did that a few times before knowing that ingredients in Rid can be toxic.

    We ended up using a stinky, expensive prescription solution (Ovide) once, then going through the washed hair daily with tweezers and scissors for a week. Looking through a magnifying viewer with a built-in light made it MUCH easier to spot the eggs. I suspect that's one reason lice are so hard to kill -- the eggs near the scalp are almost microscopic and most combs pass right over them.

    If you're reading this, you have my sympathy. Dealing with lice is like having a second full-time job! Good luck to you.


  2. The directions state to shampoo "dry" hair with RID for ten minutes and then rinse out. The second step is to use the provided gel and comb to get out the resulting dead lice, and also remove any nits/eggs at the same time. Finally, repeat process in 7-10 days. DON'T FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS!

    The reality is that the eggs can continue to hatch before the end of 7 days since you don't know how old the eggs are. And, per information I read on the internet about the active ingredients, it is highly recommended NOT to use the product before 7 days since it is a pesticide that can cause great harm to some children.

    After reading a lot of the available information on the Internet via Google search, we found the best approach is to use a good metal, fine toothed comb (Terminator Lice comb found on Amazon) and Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser as the gel to wet the hair for removing nits/nymphs and adult lice. We are making good progress. Also, we're finding some success rinsing the girls hair with vinegar to help loosen the nits that are literally cemented to the hair shafts. Two days into this process and we are finding fewer and fewer nits/nymphs each time. We're down to less than five and hope to get to zero in the next day or so from what we've read from other parents on blogs, etc..

    ONE LAST PIECE OF ADVICE: don't let your daughter or son share helmets for T-ball or junior softball. This is a huge mistake. Go buy one and save yourself the agony of dealing with this dreadful parasite.


  3. I thought I had pubic lice, so i used this. I later found out that it was genital fungus, so I can't really tell if it works or not. But the itching has stopped!

  1. the handle broke, the teeth on the short comb were unusable, the teeth on the long comb were ineffective, waste of money,


  2. The teeth are so small that you have a difficult time getting the teeth into the hair. If you do accomplish this, it will shred the hair. I would not recommend this product to anyone!
