CompareCompareFast-acting and easy-to-apply, LMX4 Lidocaine Cream helps alleviate the pain and discomfort associated with a wide variety of skin ailments including minor cuts, irritations, and abrasions, poison ivy, sunburn and other minor burns, and insect bites and stings.
LMX4 Topical Anesthetic Cream contains 4% Lidocaine, which deadens the nerve endings in the skin and surrounding tissue for a numbing effect.
This makes it ideal for use BEFORE painful cosmetic procedures such as tattoos and tattoo removal, body piercings, waxing, tweezing, and laser hair removals, microblading and microdermabrasion, and facial injectables, like Botox and Juvederm.
LMX4 cream is so effective, it is used in doctor’s offices and hospitals before minor surgical procedures, blood draws, and the insertion of IV lines.
LMX4 is for external use only. Do not use in the mouth, nose, or inside the ear, and avoid the area around the eyes.
LMX4 Topical Anesthetic Cream is a must-have for every medicine cabinet and first aid kit.
LMX4 contains lidocaine, a topical anesthetic cream ( Numbing cream ) minimizes pain quickly and effectively by numbing the skin.
The LMX4 topical anesthetic cream is a UK healthcare professional’s go-to for pain relief in the workplace. This product has been used to numb skin after minor burns, sunburns and insect bites as well as tattoo application or removal; waxing sessions at home–even those pesky eyebrows!–and dermal injections that need just enough sensitivity intact so they can be handled delicately without causing any discomfort on top of their already extensive healing abilities!
Content: 5g LMX4 Cream
Lmx4 Cream works by numbing the surface of the skin for a short time. It is put on the skin before certain medical procedures. This helps to stop the pain on the skin; however, you may still have feelings of pressure and touch.
Adults, Adolescents and Children:
It can be used to numb the skin before:
– Having a needle put in (for example, if you are having an injection or a blood test).
– Minor skin operations.
Adults and Adolescents:
It can also be used on adults to numb the genitals before:
– Having an injection.
– Medical procedures such as removal of warts.
A doctor or nurse should supervise the use of LMX4 Cream on the genitals
Adults:
It can also be used to numb the skin before:
– Cleansing or removal of damaged skin of leg ulcers
Local anaesthesia cream (numbing cream) involves numbing an area of the body using a type of medication called local anesthesia. These medications ( numbing cream ) can be used to treat painful conditions, prevent pain during procedures or operations ,and relieve post-surgical discomfort after surgery . Unlike general Anaesthetics which make you lose consciousness completely; Local Anesthesia merely leaves people feeling relaxed without any loss in motor skill ability.
Local anaesthetics are a type of medication that stop the nerves in your body sending signals to be felt by you brain, so there’s no pain. This makes it easier for people who need quick relief from something like headaches or toothaches without having them spread any further than just where they’re applied; also means those treated with this numbing cream won’t feel anything after applying unless stimulus is applied directly onto site (such as tattooing).
It normally takes about five minutes before full sensation returns once a local anesthetic has worn off- but some may experience alertness right away due.

Always use LMX4 exactly as instructed in
this leaflet. Ask the doctor, nurse or other
trained person involved in your treatment
immediately if you have any questions.
How you use LMX4 depends upon why you
are using the product. Make sure you follow
the correct dosage. If you require further
advice the doctor, nurse or other trained
person involved in your treatment can either
apply the cream for you, or show you where
and how you should use the cream.
Precautions when using LMX4:
• For external use only. Do not exceed the
recommended dose.
• Do not apply to raw or blistered skin, in the ear,
inside the nose, in the mouth, to the anus
(back passage), where there is a skin rash
or eczema, or where there are cuts, grazes
or wounds.
• Avoid getting LMX4 cream in your eyes, as
it may cause irritation. If you accidentally
get any in your eye, immediately rinse it
well with lukewarm water or sodium
chloride (salt) solution and protect it until
sensation returns.
• LMX4 blocks all sensations in the
treated area. Avoid scratching, rubbing
and exposure to extreme hot and cold
until the anaesthetic effect has worn off.
Dosage and how to apply LMX4 to provide pain relief when inserting a needle into the skin and a vein:
1g of cream is approximately equal to a 5cm length of cream squeezed from the 5g tube or 3.5cm squeezed from the 30g tube.

1g to 2.5g of cream, to cover an area of skin 2.5cm x 2.5cm (1”x1”) where the needle will be inserted. Do not leave on the skin for
longer than 5 hours. Infants over 3 months but below
1 year of age: No more than 1g of cream should be

1g of cream is approximately equal to a 5cm length of cream squeezed from the 5g tube or 3.5cm squeezed from the 30g tube.
Adults and the elderly aged 18 years and over:
Use 1.5g to 2g on each 10cm2 area of skin,
to cover a maximum total area of 900cm2 (approximately equal to a back or thigh).
Do not exceed the recommended dose.
1. Apply LMX4 approximately 30 to 60 minutes before the procedure starts.
2. Using the quantities stated above, apply the cream in a uniform layer to the skin.
3. Ensure the cream is not accidentally rubbed off the skin.
4. Shortly before the procedure is due to begin, remove the cream thoroughly with a gauze swabs

Overdose is unlikely, but talk to a doctor, nurse or other trained person involved in your treatment straight away, even if you do not
feel any symptoms. An overdose may include using more than the recommended amount, applying the cream to large areas or using
the cream for longer than recommended.

chest pain or an irregular heartbeat.

with or without a prescription, but specifically:

• Any medicine used to prevent or treat an irregular heart beat, such as tocainide, mexiletime or amiodarone.
• The beta−blocker propranolol, for the treatment of hypertension.
Cimetidine, for the treatment of heartburn or stomach ulcers.
• If you are about to receive a vaccination with live vaccine (e.g. tuberculosis vaccine). Live vaccines should not be
administered in areas where LMX4 has been applied as the effect of the vaccine may be affected.

medicine.
