Use of acid derivatives for the preparation of a pediculicidal medicament.

摘要

The use of derivatives of specific acids for the manufacture of a pediculicidal medicament. The invention is characterised in that it comprises an effective quantity of one or more non-ionic lipophilic derivatives and/or ionic hydrophilic derivatives of undecylenic acid or undecanoic acid. The non-ionic lipophilic derivatives preferably consist of esters of this undecylenic acid or this undecanoic acid with a C1-C16 monoalcohol containing no other OH functional group than that which reacts with the COOH functional group of the undecylenic acid. The ionic hydrophilic derivatives preferably consist of alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal salts.
