Uses
Lidothol Gel is indicated for relief of pain associated with arthritis, backache, cramps, discomfort, neckache, soreness, sprains, strains. It should be applied only to intact skin.
Dosage
Apply Lidothol Gel to intact skin to cover the most painful area. Clean and dry the affected area. Apply product directly to your skin, up to 4 times daily. Clothing may be worn over the area of application. If irritation or a burning sensation occurs during application, wash the product off your skin and do not reapply until the irritation subsides. When Lidothol Gel is used concomitantly with other products containing local anesthetic agents, the amount absorbed from all formulations must be considered.
Side Effects
Application Site Reactions During or immediately after treatment with Lidothol Gel, the skin at the site of application may develop blisters, bruising, burning sensation, depigmentation, dermatitis, discoloration, edema, erythema, exfoliation, irritation, papules, petechia, pruritus, vesicles, or may be the locus of abnormal sensation. These reactions are generally mild and transient, resolving spontaneously within a few minutes to hours.
Warnings
Medicines intended to be applied to the skin should not be swallowed. Lidothol Gel is flammable. Keep away from open flame. You should never heat, microwave, or add the medicine to hot water. Risk of Methemoglobinemia Cases of methemoglobinemia have been reported in association with lidocaine use. Although all patients are at risk for methemoglobinemia, patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia, cardiac or pulmonary compromise, infants under 6 months of age, and concurrent exposure to oxidizing agents or their metabolites are more susceptible to developing the condition. If lidocaine must be used in these patients, close monitoring for symptoms and signs of methemoglobinemia is recommended. Lidothol Gel is contraindicated in patients with a known history of sensitivity to local anesthetics of the amide type, or to any other component of the product.
