TETRALID CREAM 5GM is a topical anaesthetic medication used to numb a specific area of the skin. It helps reduce pain and discomfort during certain skin procedures like laser treatments, tattoo removal, dermal filler injection (cosmetic injections to enhance facial features), and skin removal (biopsy) for testing.

TETRALID CREAM 5GM contains two local anaesthetic medications: Lidocaine and Tetracaine. Both drugs work by blocking the sodium ion channels that allow nerves to send pain signals, which helps numb the area and reduce pain and discomfort.

TETRALID CREAM 5GM is for external use only. TETRALID CREAM 5GM causes common side effects, such as swelling, redness, and skin discolouration at the application site, in some individuals. These side effects are generally mild and will gradually resolve over time without the need for treatment. However, if these side effects worsen or persist, please consult your doctor.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any ingredients in TETRALID CREAM 5GM, para-aminobenzoic acid, or other local anaesthetics. Avoid using TETRALID CREAM 5GM for longer durations or on larger skin areas than recommended, as this may result in serious side effects. Before using TETRALID CREAM 5GM, tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. TETRALID CREAM 5GM is not recommended for individuals with methemoglobinemia (a severe blood disorder affecting the blood's ability to carry oxygen) or babies under 12 months of age who are being treated with methemoglobin-inducing agents. Inform your doctor if you have a history of severe liver disease, heart problems, a genetic disorder (pseudocholinesterase deficiency), or blood disorders before using TETRALID CREAM 5GM.
