Reply To: Treatment failed twice. Is resistance a thing?

Reduced effectiveness of some topical treatments is documented, so it is a fair question rather than a paranoid one. But before concluding that, the far more common explanations are worth ruling out.

Was every partner and household member treated at the same time, was the second application at the interval on the instructions, and did the product stay on for the full time?
