4% Lidocaine Patch: Uses, Side Effects, and Drug Interactions
Brand names: Relieved Pro Wrap
# 4% Lidocaine Patch Overview A 4% lidocaine patch is a medicated bandage that helps relieve pain in a small area of your skin. The patch works by numbing the nerves in the area where you place it, which stops pain signals from reaching your brain. People use this patch for minor aches and pains, like muscle soreness or nerve pain. You simply stick the patch directly onto clean, dry skin over the area that hurts. Most people can wear one patch at a time, and you should follow the instructions on the package for how long to leave it on. Before using this patch, there are some important safety rules to remember. Don't use it on broken skin, rashes, or if you're allergic to lidocaine. If you're pregnant, nursing a baby, or taking other medicines, talk to your doctor first. Never let children or pets chew or play with the patch. If you accidentally swallow the patch or if your pain doesn't get better after a few days, call a doctor right away. Store the patches at room temperature and keep them away from heat and sunlight. If you have any side effects like skin redness, swelling, or trouble breathing, stop using the patch and get medical help immediately.
