• Comfort During Examinations: Helps make medical examinations more comfortable by reducing local pain.

• Always ensure the area of application is clean before applying the jelly.
• Apply Xylocaine 2% Jelly exactly as directed by your doctor or healthcare professional. The amount used and frequency of application will depend on the procedure or condition being treated.

• After applying the jelly, wash your hands thoroughly unless your hands are the area being treated.
• Consult your doctor if you have any doubts or questions regarding its use.

Xylocaine 2% Jelly is applied topically.

Xylocaine 2% Jelly contains lignocaine hydrochloride (2%), which influences the body in the following ways:

• Neuronal membrane stabilisation: Lignocaine works by stabilising the neuronal membrane in your body. The neuronal membrane is a layer that protects nerve cells and helps send signals between them.
• Inhibition of ionic fluxes: Lignocaine inhibits ionic fluxes required to begin and carry out nerve impulses. This means it stops certain particles from moving in a way that usually starts and continues nerve signals.
• Pain signal blocking: By stabilising the neuronal membrane and inhibiting ionic fluxes, lignocaine effectively blocks pain signals from reaching your brain. This results in a numbing effect or loss of sensation in the area where the jelly is applied.

• Store Xylocaine 2% Jelly in a cool, dry place.
• It should be kept from direct sunlight and moisture to preserve its efficacy.
• Keep it tightly closed when not in use.
• Always keep this medication out of the reach of children.
• Make sure to use Xylocaine 2% Jelly before the expiry date.

• To manage itching or irritation caused by minor skin conditions, reduce your intake of foods known to cause allergies, such as dairy products, gluten, shellfish, or nuts. An allergy-free diet might help decrease inflammation and improve overall skin health.
• Since Xylocaine 2% Jelly is also used to relieve pain from insect bites, consider using protective clothing and insect repellents to lessen exposure to insects outdoors.
