Description

Lidocaine 5% Patch 30 Count is a topical analgesic product used for the localized treatment of pain associated with post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) and other localized pain conditions. Each patch contains 5% lidocaine, a local anesthetic that works by stabilizing the neuronal membranes and inhibiting the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses. The patches are designed to be applied directly to the skin, where they deliver a controlled, sustained release of lidocaine to the targeted area.

The Lidocaine 5% Patch is specifically indicated for the management of localized pain, particularly in conditions involving nerve-related discomfort. Its effectiveness is due to the local application, ensuring that the active ingredient directly impacts the affected tissue. The patch format offers the advantage of prolonged pain relief without the need for oral medication.

The patch is easy to apply and adheres securely to the skin for up to 12 hours of use. After application, the patch should be removed, and the site should be allowed to recover. Multiple patches may be applied to different sites, but they should not be placed on broken or irritated skin.
