What is Emla Cream?
Emla Cream is a eutectic formula made up of Lidocaine 2.5% and Prilocaine2.5%. Both of these amide-type local anestheticsmake this cream an effectivelocal anesthetic for topical use. The medication numbs the normal, healthy skin without cuts and cracks as well as the genital mucous membranes. The cream is often applied as a pretreatment for infiltration anesthesia or before performing surgeries of the genitals.
Emla Cream Is Used as an Anesthetic
Emla cream is primarily used on the exterior genital area to perform painless medical procedures like removal of genital warts. It blocks the nerves and numbs the tissue of a specific area before injecting needles or performing skin grafts or laser surgeries. This product should not be used near ears. In case the product fails to completely numb the region, its application can be followed by a lidocaine injection.
Emla cream contains lidocaine and prilocaine as its main active ingredients. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic and is also used to treat ventricular tachycardia. It decreases bleeding and causes long-lasting numbing. It is combined with Prilocaina to prepare the topical cream used for dermal anesthesia. Prilocaina, due to its lower cardiac toxicity, is also used as intravenous regional anesthesia.
How to Use Emla Cream
A thick layer of Emla cream is applied on to intact skin and wrapped with a protective, occlusive dressing.
When performing minor dermal procedures, such as intravenous cannulation and venipuncture, cover a skin area of 20 to 25 square centimeter with 2.5g or half of the 5g tube of Emla cream at least an hour before the procedure.
When using it for major, more painful dermatological procedures, in which a larger area of skin is involved, like skin graft harvesting, dispense 2g of Emla cream per 10 square centimeter of skin area. Leave the cream on the skin for at least 2 hours.
When using Emla cream along with local anesthetic infiltration of the adult male genital skin, apply 1g of Emla cream per 10 square centimeter of skin area. Leave it on for 15 minutes and then perform local anesthetic infiltration as soon as the cream is removed. The effect of the medicine will last 1 to 2 after the removal of the cream and the overall effect of the dermal analgesia will be up to 3 hours under occlusive dressing.
Apply 5 to 10 g of Emla cream on the external genitalia of the female patients and leave it for 5 to 10 minutes before removing of condylomataacuminata or performing any other minor procedure. Make the patient lie down before applying the cream. In this case, occlusion is not required but can be used to ensure the cream remains in place. Remove the cream and perform the procedure immediately.
