Overview Epistag Cream

Numbex Topical Cream combines two local anesthetics to provide localized numbing. Applied to intact skin, it prevents discomfort prior to minor procedures such as injections or wound closure. Numbex temporarily desensitizes the skin, its application method dictated by your physician's instructions. For external use only, apply a thin, even layer (approximately 2-3mm) to a clean, dry area, gently rubbing it in. Cover with an airtight dressing for at least two hours pre-procedure. Avoid contact with eyes and mouth; rinse thoroughly with water if accidental exposure occurs. Common, usually transient, side effects include burning, irritation, itching, redness, or rash at the application site. Persistent or bothersome symptoms warrant medical attention.

FAQs on Epistag Cream

Prilocaine and lidocaine, combined in Epistag Cream, create a topical anesthetic. This cream is applied to unbroken skin to provide localized numbness prior to injections or minor surface surgeries. Its application to genital mucosa similarly produces analgesia before injections.
Numbness from Epistag Cream, when used with a pressure dressing, should last up to three hours. This effect may continue for one to two hours post-removal.
Apply Epistag Cream to the skin at least one hour prior to a standard procedure (e.g., needle puncture). For more invasive procedures (e.g., minor surgery), allow a minimum two-hour interval before commencing. A pressure dressing ensures even cream distribution and site protection. When treating genital mucosa, a generous layer of Epistag Cream should remain on the skin for 15 minutes before local anesthetic injection. The physician will determine the appropriate application time.
Epistag Cream should only be applied to intact skin, excluding the genital region, unless a physician advises otherwise. Avoid application to any areas with open wounds or damaged skin.
