Xynova 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. 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.
