Understanding LMX:
LMX is liposomal lidocaine topical cream — over-the-counter local anesthetic for minor skin and anorectal pain. Liposomal formulation enhances skin penetration.
How LMX Works:
Lidocaine blocks voltage-gated sodium channels, preventing nerve action potential propagation — local anesthetic effect.
Topical application provides local pain relief without systemic effects (when used correctly). LMX liposomal formulation enhances dermal penetration vs plain lidocaine.
Form and use:
Apply small amount to affected area as needed.
Generic availability:
Generic OTC lidocaine creams (4% or 5%) widely available at low cost. Other OTC: Aspercreme with lidocaine, Salonpas lidocaine. Rx EMLA cream (lidocaine/prilocaine) for procedures.
Warnings:
Use only as directed. Avoid large areas, broken skin, or under occlusion (systemic absorption risk). Methemoglobinemia (rare). Allergic reactions.
