LIGNOLIVE (VISCOUS) 200 ML

About

Lignolive (Viscous) 200 ML is a topical anesthetic solution containing lidocaine, a potent local anesthetic. It works by blocking nerve signals in the body, specifically at the site of application, to provide temporary relief from pain and discomfort. This viscous formulation is designed for application to mucous membranes, where it adheres well and provides prolonged local anesthetic action. It is particularly useful for conditions affecting the mouth, throat, and esophagus, where localized pain relief is required without systemic effects.

The anesthetic effect helps to numb the area, making it more comfortable for patients experiencing irritation, inflammation, or pain due to various medical conditions or procedures. Its viscous nature ensures better contact with the affected tissues, enhancing its efficacy and duration of action. It is a valuable tool for symptomatic relief in a clinical setting.
