Abametapir(Cat No.:M121107)is a metalloproteinase inhibitor used as a topical treatment for head lice infestations. It works by disrupting the activity of metalloproteinases essential for the development and maturation of lice eggs, preventing them from hatching. Abametapir’s dual action targets both adult lice and their eggs, making it effective in eliminating infestations with a single application. Its novel mechanism provides a non-toxic alternative to traditional insecticides, reducing the risk of resistance. Abametapir offers a convenient and effective solution for managing lice infestations, particularly in treatment-resistant cases.
