Introduction

Wocaine 2% Gel is a local anesthetic used to temporarily numb certain areas of the body. It is used as an anesthetic lubricant to insert instruments in the human body for medical procedures (e.g., catheters). It is also used for the treatment of symptoms of painful inflammation of the urethra and bladder. The most common side effects of this medicine include redness, rash, burning, and itching at the site of application. These are usually mild and short-lived. Consult your doctor if any of the side effects persist or worry you.

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the gel. Wash your hands after applying unless hands are the affected area.

Wocaine 2% Gel is a local anesthetic. It works on the skin by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain. This numbs the area and decreases pain sensation.

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 to by your doctor. Do not cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor. 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.
