This is an amide local anesthetic indicated for adults who require localized anesthesia in periodontal pockets during scaling and/or root planing
Local & Surface anesthesia,Topical Local Anesthetics
Lidocaine and prilocaine are local anaesthetic agents of the amide type. Both work by stabilising the neuronal membranes and inhibiting the ionic fluxes required for the initiation and conduction of impulses, thereby giving rise to the anaesthetic action.
Use the included blunt tipped applicator to apply gel to gingival margins and periodontal pockets. ? May be reapplied as needed up to a maximum of 5 cartridges per treatment session
Cream should be used with caution in patients receiving antiarrhythmic drugs, such as tocainide, since the toxic effects are additive.

Pregnancy: There have been no adequate and well?controlled studies in pregnant women. this should be used during pregnancy only if the benefits outweigh the risks. ? Nursing Mothers: Exercise caution when administering to a nursing woman
Toxic levels of lidocaine (>5 µg/ml) and/or prilocaine (>6 µg/ml) may decrease cardiac output, total peripheral resistance and mean arterial pressure. These changes are due to direct depressant effects of these local anaesthetic agents on the CVS.
