Perlice contains Permethrin which is toxic compound. If it was just a lick, do not worry, she will be fine. It is good to keep all medicines, phenyl, toxic things etc under lock and key if you have small babies.

Perlice which contains permethrin kills the lice, after rinsing you need to remove them using a comb. However it does not kill nits, and thats why you have to reapply 7 days later to kill the new lice! do not forget to treat all your family members.

Hi!
you can use soap also after permithin lotion application. But always use a moisturising soap like dove or mysore sandal soap to prevent dryness. No side effects as such.

It could be due to dandruff. Apply Nizral (Ketoconazole) shampoo twice weekly for few weeks. Consult skin specialist/Trichologist (Hair specialist) for further advice and treatment.
