Description
EMLA Cream contains two active substances called lidocaine and prilocaine. These belong to a group of medicines called local anaesthetics.
EMLA Cream works by numbing the surface of the skin for a short time. It is put on the skin before certain medical procedures. This helps to stop pain on the skin; however, you may still have the feelings of pressure and touch.
- It can be used prior to a needle involving procedure, to reduce pain and make it less distressing for you or your child when visiting a doctor.
- It can be used to temporarily numb the genital skin before the surgical treatment of localized lesions, such as the removal of genital warts.
- It can be used to facilitate cleansing/debridement of leg ulcers.
