About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Epistag Cream is a topical anesthetic formulation containing Prilocaine 25 mg and Lidocaine 25 mg per gram, designed to provide effective local anesthesia for minor surgical procedures, dermatological interventions, and pain relief associated with superficial skin conditions. The combination of Prilocaine and Lidocaine offers a rapid onset of action with a balanced duration, enhancing patient comfort by numbing the targeted area. Prilocaine, an amide-type local anesthetic, works by inhibiting sodium ion influx in nerve cells, thereby blocking nerve impulse conduction. Lidocaine complements this effect with its potent anesthetic properties, ensuring comprehensive sensory blockade. Epistag Cream is indicated for use prior to venipuncture, intravenous cannulation, laser treatment, tattooing, and other minor invasive procedures requiring surface anesthesia. It is applied topically to intact skin, with the recommended dose and duration depending on the procedure and patient factors. The cream should be used with caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to amide anesthetics and avoided on broken or inflamed skin. Adverse effects are generally mild and transient, including localized erythema, edema, or paresthesia. Epistag Cream should be used under medical supervision to ensure optimal efficacy and safety.
