Common questions (FAQ)
  • Do I need a prescription?

    Yes. Natroba™ requires a prescription. You can ask your doctor, or get prescribed online now.

  • Does it require nit combing?

    No. Most other head lice treatments require nit combing. Natroba™ does not, which makes it the quick and easy option.

  • Is it safe for children?

    Natroba™ is FDA-approved for children 6 months and older. It only targets the bugs, not the body, and the active ingredient is not absorbed into your skin.

  • Does it kill the eggs (nits)?

    Yes. Natroba™ eliminates both adult head lice and their eggs in a single step.

  • Will insurance cover it?

    Natroba™ is covered by major insurance plans. You will see your exact cost before you commit.

  • What if OTC treatments didn't work?

    Over-the-counter pharmacy-aisle products are typically ineffective against today's resistant lice. Natroba™ can be used even after other treatments fail.
