This was a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, vehicle-controlled, parallel-group study in subjects with active head lice infestation. The study was designed to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a single application of abametapir lotion 0.74% w/w compared to a vehicle control, when applied to scalp and hair for 10 minutes at home. Approximately 106 index subjects with their household members were enrolled into the study. A total of approximately 318 subjects were enrolled, assuming an average of 3 members per household participating in the study.
