Childbirth, and after the birth if stitches are needed.
•
Treatment at the dentist.

4.1 Therapeutic indications
For the prevention of pain associated with the following procedures:
Otorhinolaryngology
– Puncture of the maxillary sinus and minor surgical procedures in
the nasal cavity, pharynx and
epipharynx.
– Paracentesis.
Obstetrics
During the final stages of delivery and before episiotomy and perineal
suturing as supplementary pain
control.
Introduction of instruments and catheters into the respiratory and
digestive tract
Provides surface anaesthesia for the oropharyngeal and tracheal areas
to reduce reflex activity, attenuate
haemodynamic response and to facilitate insertion of the tube or the
passage of instruments during
endotracheal intubation, laryngoscopy, bronchoscopy and
oesophagoscopy.
Dental practice
Before injections, dental impressions, X-ray photography, removal of
calculus.
4.2 Posology and method of administration
As with any local anaesthetic, reactions and complications are best
averted by employing the minimal
effective dosage. Debilitated or elderly patients and children should
be given doses commensurate with
their age and physical condition.
Xylocaine Spray should not be used on cuffs of endotracheal tubes
(ETT) made of plastic (see also
section 4.4).
Each activation of the metered dose valve delivers 10 mg lidocaine
base. It is unnecessary to dry the site
prior to application. No more than 20 spray applications should be
used in any adult to produce the
desired anaesthetic effect.
The number of sprays depend on the extent of the area to be
anaesthetised.
