Quick tips
- Do not eat or drink until normal sensation returns if Lignox Spray 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.
