The proportion of subjects lice free at the end of the study (Day 10)
Primary objective of this study was the cure rate (%) in each treatment group, following two applications (day 0 and day 7) of the specific test product, as assessed on the last evaluation visit (day 10).
Measured: Day 10
Secondary outcomes (1)
The proportion of subjects lice free at each of the intermediate evaluations (Day 1, Day 7)
Secondary outcome involved the cure rate (%) in each treatment group, following one application of the specific test product, as assessed 24h post treatment (day 1) and on day 7 (prior to the second treatment).
Measured: Day 1, Day 7
