Elligno 2% Jelly is a local anesthetic. It works on the skin by blocking pain signals from the nerves to the brain, numbing the area and decreasing pain sensation.

Elligno 2% Jelly is prescribed to relieve itching and pain caused by scrapes, burns, rashes, bites, and eczema. Apply it over the affected area with a clean fingertip, three to four times a day or as directed by your doctor. Do not apply it to broken or infected areas of skin, face, eyes, or eyelids unless instructed by your doctor. Do not cover the treated area with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and nose. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Consult your doctor if your skin condition has not improved after 2-4 weeks of treatment. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
