Lignocad Gel

Lignocad Gel is only for external use and should not be swallowed or ingested. Follow your doctor’s instructions for the best results. Do not use too much or too little, as that may increase the risk of side effects or decrease efficiency.

The most common side effects of this medicine include redness, rash, burning, and itching at the site of application. These are usually mild and short-lived. Consult your doctor if any of the side effects persist or worry you.

Before using it, inform your doctor if you are taking medicines for heart rhythm problems. Although medicines used on the skin are not normally affected by other medicines, you should let your doctor know if you are taking any other medicines to be safe. Ask your doctor for advice if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

• Local anesthesia (Numb tissues in a specific area)

Use Lignocad Gel exactly as directed on the product label or by your doctor. The amount and frequency may depend on the size of the area being treated and the reason for use. Apply only the recommended amount and do not use it on large areas, damaged skin or under a dressing unless advised by a healthcare professional.

• Do not eat or drink until normal sensation returns if Lignocad Gel is used in the mouth or throat, as numbness can increase the risk of choking or biting injuries.
• Use the smallest amount needed and avoid frequent reapplication or very large areas.
• Do not use other lidocaine products at the same time without medical advice.
• Keep the treated area away from heat sources, such as heating pads or hot packs, because heat can increase the amount of medicine absorbed.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after applying to avoid accidental contact with the eyes or other sensitive areas.
