Lidocaine Ointment 5% is a topical anesthetic used for temporary relief of pain and itching associated with minor skin conditions, such as sunburn, eczema, insect bites, and minor cuts. It functions by blocking nerve signals in the affected area, therefore numbing the skin to reduce discomfort. This ointment is also utilized in medical settings to alleviate pain before certain procedures like endoscopy or minor surgeries. Its potent formula provides fast and effective numbing, making it a valuable tool for both patients and healthcare providers.

Specially designed for topical application, this ointment efficiently alleviates discomfort associated with skin irritations, minor burns, and other localized conditions. Packaged in a practical and hygienic 50-gram jar, it offers convenience and precision for both healthcare professionals and personal use.

Details and Features:

High Potency Formulation: Each 50-gram jar contains 5% lidocaine, offering a potent and reliable numbing effect to tackle various dermatological conditions.
Rapid Relief: Quickly acts to dull pain by numbing the affected area, ensuring fast relief and enhanced comfort in minutes.

Directions for Use:

1. Preparation: Clean and dry the area to be treated prior to application.
2. Application: Apply a thin layer of the ointment to the affected area. Gently massage the ointment into the skin until it is evenly distributed. 
3. Repeat if Necessary: Reapply up to 3-4 times a day as needed or as directed by a healthcare professional.
4. Hygiene: Wash hands thoroughly after use to avoid unintentional numbing of other areas.

Mechanism of Action:

Lidocaine works by inhibiting the sodium channels in the neuronal cell membranes. This action blocks the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses, leading to a reversal of the sodium influx, which results in local anesthesia. The numbing effect is rapid, providing efficient and localized pain control without impacting adjacent areas.

Side Effects:

  • Temporary redness or mild irritation at the site of application.
  • Potential allergic reactions including itching, rash, or swelling.
  • Prolonged numbness in the treated area or dilution of sensation.

Warnings:

  • For External Use Only: Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, and large skin areas. Do not ingest.
  • Consult Health Professionals: Seek medical advice before use in case of severe burns, deep puncture wounds, or when used on broken skin.
  • Discontinue Use if Necessary: Stop using if excessive irritation, rash, or other adverse effects occur. Consult a healthcare professional immediately.
  • Keep Out of Reach of Children: Ensure secure storage to avoid accidental ingestion or misuse. Ingesting the product requires immediate medical assistance.
