Numbs your skin, to relieve the pain of injections.
Ametop 40mg/g Gel 1.5g is a numbing gel that helps take the "sting" out of injections and contains 4% w/w of tetracaine.
This unique gel will relieve any pain or irritation that your skin may feel after injections or blood samples are taken.
Ametop 4% Gel works quickly with a wait of only 30 to 60 minutes for it to take effect.
Tetracaine works by temporarily blocking pain signals by preventing sodium from entering the nerve ending. This stops an electrical signal from going to the brain.
Epileptic patients should take special care.
The gel should not be applied to wounds, or broken skin, or on the lips, mouth, tongue, eyes, ears, anal, or genital area.
