Lidopin
Lidopin is a topical anesthetic that contains lidocaine, a local anesthetic used to relieve pain by numbing the affected area. It is commonly used for localized pain relief from conditions like minor burns, skin irritations, insect bites, and sunburn. Lidopin may also be used to reduce pain or discomfort during certain medical procedures, such as minor surgeries, needle insertion, or dermatological treatments. By blocking nerve signals in the body, Lidopin provides temporary relief from pain and discomfort.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly does Lidopin start working?
Lidopin typically begins to work within 5-10 minutes after application, providing localized pain relief.
Can Lidopin be used for back pain or muscle strains?
Yes, Lidopin can be applied to localized areas of back pain or muscle strains to provide temporary pain relief. However, consult your healthcare provider if the pain persists or worsens.
What should I do if I experience skin irritation from Lidopin?
If you experience mild irritation, stop using Lidopin and apply a moisturizer to the area. If the irritation is severe or persists, discontinue use and contact your healthcare provider.
Can I use Lidopin for chronic pain conditions?
Lidopin can provide temporary relief for localized pain, but it is not intended for long-term use unless directed by a healthcare provider. For chronic pain conditions, other treatments such as lidocaine patches or oral medications may be more appropriate.
Is Lidopin safe for use during pregnancy?
Lidopin is generally considered safe for short-term use during pregnancy, but it is important to consult your healthcare provider before using any medication during pregnancy to ensure safety for you and your baby.
Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Lidopin Work?
Lidocaine, the active ingredient in Lidopin, works by blocking voltage-gated sodium channels in the nerve cells, preventing the nerves from transmitting pain signals to the brain. This numbs the area where Lidopin is applied, providing localized pain relief without affecting other parts of the body.
Common Dosages
- Cream, gel, or ointment: Apply a thin layer to the affected area up to 3-4 times daily.
Typical Dosing
- For minor burns, skin irritations, or insect bites: Apply a small amount of Lidopin 2 to 4 times daily to the affected area.
- For medical procedures: The healthcare provider may apply Lidopin before procedures to numb the area.
Typical Dosing
FDA Approved Indications
- Minor burns and sunburn
- Insect bites and stings
- Skin irritations and rashes
- Minor cuts, scrapes, and abrasions
- Local anesthesia for minor medical procedures (e.g., injections, minor surgeries, dermatological treatments)
Who Shouldn't Take Lidopin?
- Known hypersensitivity or allergy to lidocaine or other amide-type local anesthetics.
- Severe liver disease, as the body’s ability to metabolize lidocaine may be compromised.
- Open wounds or severely damaged skin, unless directed by a healthcare provider.
Advice From The Pharmacist
- Apply Lidopin only to intact skin and avoid contact with open wounds, broken skin, or mucous membranes (eyes, nose, mouth).
- Avoid covering the treated area with occlusive dressings unless advised by your healthcare provider, as this can increase lidocaine absorption and the risk of side effects.
- Wash your hands thoroughly after applying the product to avoid getting it in your eyes or mouth.
- If using Lidopin for pain relief before a medical procedure, follow the instructions of your healthcare provider carefully to ensure proper use.
Side Effects of Lidopin
Common Side Effects
- Mild skin irritation at the application site
- Redness or itching
- Numbness or tingling in the treated area
Uncommon/Severe Side Effects
- Allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, difficulty breathing)
- Severe skin irritation or blistering at the application site
- Systemic toxicity, which may occur if large amounts of lidocaine are absorbed into the bloodstream, presenting symptoms like dizziness, confusion, or irregular heartbeat.
Risks and Warnings of Lidopin
- Systemic Absorption: Applying Lidopin to large areas of the body or using it under occlusive dressings can lead to excessive absorption of lidocaine into the bloodstream, increasing the risk of side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, or irregular heartbeat.
- Skin Reactions: Prolonged or excessive use of Lidopin may result in skin irritation or allergic reactions. Discontinue use if severe irritation occurs.
- Use in Children: Be cautious when using Lidopin in children, especially in large amounts, as they may be more sensitive to lidocaine's effects.
Interactions with Lidopin
Common Drug Interactions
- Other topical anesthetics: Combining Lidopin with other local anesthetics can increase the risk of side effects and systemic absorption.
- Class I antiarrhythmics (e.g., mexiletine): These medications can increase the risk of lidocaine toxicity if used together.
- Beta-blockers: These drugs can reduce the metabolism of lidocaine, potentially increasing the risk of side effects.
Alternatives to Lidopin
- Benzocaine: Another over-the-counter topical anesthetic used for localized pain relief from burns, bites, and cuts.
- Lidocaine patches: Available for more targeted and sustained pain relief, particularly for conditions like postherpetic neuralgia.
- Capsaicin cream: Provides pain relief by reducing a substance in the body that triggers pain signals, though it works differently from lidocaine.
- Topical NSAIDs (e.g., diclofenac): Used for pain and inflammation, particularly in conditions like arthritis or muscle pain.
