About Xynova P Cream

LIDOCAINE+PRILOCAINE belongs to the class of local anaesthetics known as 'numbing medication' used to produce local numbness (anaesthesia) on skin before surgical procedure or injections. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, which causes uncomfortable sensations in the body. Pain may be dull or sharp, it might be constant or intermittent. The tolerance level of pain might vary from person to person.

LIDOCAINE+PRILOCAINE is a combination of amide-type local anaesthetics: Lidocaine and Prilocaine. LIDOCAINE+PRILOCAINE blocks the influx (entry) of sodium ions into the membrane that surrounds the nerves, thereby preventing initiation and conduction of impulses. Hence, it gives an anaesthetic effect and helps decrease the sensation of pain.
