What is Lidocaine, Prilocaine?

Tapfi is a topical anesthetic cream combining lidocaine and prilocaine for numbing skin before minor procedures. This EU-manufactured product provides localized pain relief for common skin treatments. Ideal for reducing discomfort during injections or minor skin procedures. Short-term use ensures targeted relief without systemic effects.

What is Lidocaine, Prilocaine used for?

Tapfi is used to numb the skin before minor medical procedures like injections, blood draws, or minor surgical interventions. It helps reduce pain and discomfort during these routine treatments by temporarily blocking nerve signals in the applied area. Commonly used for pediatric procedures where minimizing pain is a priority.

What are the side effects of Lidocaine, Prilocaine?

When applied as directed, Tapfi works by temporarily numbing the skin, creating a sensation of reduced sensitivity in the treated area. The combined action of lidocaine and prilocaine helps dull pain signals from the skin surface. Effects typically begin within 30 to 60 minutes and last for a few hours.

What precautions apply to Lidocaine, Prilocaine?

Apply Tapfi only to intact skin and avoid broken or irritated areas. Keep the product away from eyes and mucous membranes to prevent irritation. Use the smallest amount needed for the procedure and follow the recommended application time. Avoid covering the area with tight bandages unless directed by a healthcare provider.

What does Lidocaine, Prilocaine interact with?

Tapfi may interact with other topical anesthetics or medications that affect heart rhythm. Avoid using it with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors, as these can increase the risk of side effects. Do not combine with other numbing creams or gels unless advised by a medical professional. Alcohol or sedatives may enhance drowsiness when used with Tapfi.
