Xylocaine 10% Spray 50ML is a fast-acting topical local anaesthetic formulated by AstraZeneca, delivering 10mg of lidocaine per metered pump spray. This metered-dose pharmaceutical numbing spray provides rapid surface anaesthesia of mucous membranes for dental, ENT, obstetric, and endoscopic procedures. Used by healthcare professionals across UAE clinics and hospitals, Xylocaine 10% Spray reduces pain and gag reflex within 1 to 5 minutes of application. Available at MedX Pharmacy with fast UAE delivery for licensed buyers.
How It Works
Xylocaine works by blocking sodium channels in nerve cell membranes, preventing the transmission of pain signals to the brain. When sprayed onto mucous membranes such as the mouth, throat, or nasal passages, lidocaine penetrates tissue rapidly due to the absence of a keratinised layer, producing profound surface anaesthesia within 1 to 5 minutes. The numbing effect lasts approximately 15 to 30 minutes, providing sufficient time for short clinical procedures while minimising patient discomfort and reflex gagging during intubation or instrumentation.
Important Information
Xylocaine 10% Spray is a prescription-only medicine and must be administered or supervised by a licensed healthcare professional. Consult your healthcare provider before use. Do not use if allergic to lidocaine or other amide-type local anaesthetics (such as prilocaine or bupivacaine). Use with caution in patients with wounds, traumatised mucosa, or sepsis at the application site, as systemic absorption may be elevated. Avoid eating for one hour after oral application due to risk of choking. Do not use on plastic endotracheal tube cuffs. Store below 25°C. Keep out of reach of children. Single-use nozzles must be disposed of immediately after use.
