- Use together with other medicines
- Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking other medicines, have recently taken other medicines, or if you intend to take other medicines.

- In particular, tell your doctor if you or your child has recently taken or been given any of the following medicines:
- Medicines, called sulphonamides, used in infections, and nitrofurantoin.
- Medicines, phenytoin and phenobarbital, which are used in epilepsy.
- Other local anaesthetics.
- Medicines for the treatment of irregular heartbeat, such as amiodarone.
- Cimetidine or beta-blockers, which can cause an increase in the concentration of lidocaine in the blood. This interaction is not clinically significant with short-term treatment with the cream within the recommended doses.
- When you apply the cream, it is important that you follow exactly the following instructions:
- 1. Squeeze out a pile of cream from the tube where it is needed (for example, where the needle puncture should take place). Do not massage in the cream.
- 2. Peel off the layer of paper from the middle section of the patch on the non-sticky side (a paper frame remains).
- 3. Remove the cover on the adhesive side of the patch.
- 4. Carefully place the patch over the cream heap. Do not distribute the cream under the patch.
- 5. Remove the back of paper. Press the corners of the patch carefully. Then leave it like this for at least 60 minutes.
- 6. Your doctor or healthcare professional will remove the patch and remove the cream just before performing the medical procedure (e.g. B. directly before the needle puncture).
