This is a Phase III, multi-center, investigator-blinded, two-arm, randomized, parallel group study, evaluating the safety and efficacy of a Malathion Gel, 0.5% formulation, manufactured by Taro. The objective is to show superiority of the novel product to an active control, Nix® Crème Rinse, manufactured by Insight Pharmaceuticals.
