Amethocaine is a local anesthetic commonly used before skin surgery or minor surgery. It quickly reduces local pain and discomfort, making the patient feel more comfortable during the procedure. Amethocaine is suitable for most people, but you should inform your doctor about allergies and drug use before use. Follow your doctor's instructions when using it and avoid excessive use. Possible side effects include local allergic skin reactions such as itching or redness. If you have severe discomfort or allergic reaction, seek medical attention immediately. In Hong Kong, amethocaine generally requires a doctor's prescription to purchase. When using it, be sure to store it in a dry and cool place, away from children. Talk to your doctor for more information about amethocaine.
Instructions:
Apply AMETHOCAINE Ointment to clean skin and massage gently until fully absorbed. Skin should be clean and dry before use. Not recommended for use on wounds or damaged skin. No specific dietary requirements are required, but avoidance of contact with eyes and mucous membranes is recommended.
Dosage Guidelines:
- Adults: Starting dose is one application per square inch of skin, up to 4 times daily. The dose can be adjusted as needed, but at least 4 hours should elapse between each use.
- Children: Please use under the guidance of a physician. The dosage should be adjusted according to age and weight. It is generally recommended not to exceed half the adult dose.
The dosage and frequency of use can be adjusted appropriately based on individual needs and physician instructions. If you experience any discomfort or allergic reaction, you should stop using it immediately and consult a physician.
