Xylocaine Jelly is a topical anesthetic gel commonly used to prevent pain and discomfort during certain medical procedures that involve the male and female urethra or the urinary tract. It is also used to numb the lining of the mouth, throat, or nose before certain medical procedures (such as intubation).
Lidocaine, the active ingredient in Xylocaine Jelly, belongs to a class of drugs known as local anesthetics which blocks the signals at the nerve endings in the skin, making the nerves unable to pass messages to the brain. Xylocaine Jelly works by numbing certain areas of the body that are moist.
Xylocaine Jelly is typically applied by a healthcare professional just before the procedure to numb the tissue and prevent pain. However, if you are using Xylocaine Jelly at home, be sure to follow the preparation and usage instructions provided by your healthcare professional and found in the product package.
Before using, clean the affected area, and apply the jelly as directed using clean hands, being careful not to get it in your eyes. Wash your hands after use and discard any unused jelly after the first use.
The dosage will depend on your medical condition and how you respond to treatment, with the dosage for children also based on their age and weight. Do not use more than 4 doses within a 24-hour period, and do not take more than prescribed or use it for longer than instructed, as this can increase your risk of serious side effects.
If using Xylocaine Jelly in the mouth or throat, it can cause numbness that could make swallowing difficult and increase the risk of swallowing the wrong way or choking. Do not chew gum or eat for 1 hour after using the product while your mouth or throat is numb, especially for children who underwent a procedure. Also, be careful not to accidentally bite your tongue or mouth.
Lidocaine, the active ingredient in Xylocaine Jelly, starts to work within 5 minutes after application. If you do not feel numb after using the medication or the numbness does not go away, talk to your doctor. And if you are using it to relieve pain or discomfort, make sure to inform your healthcare provider if your condition lasts or worsens.
