Prilox Cream<\/strong> is een topical local anaesthetic cream containing lidocaine 2.5% + prilocaine 2.5%<\/strong> — the “EMLA” (Eutectic Mixture of Local Anaesthetics) formulation. It is used to numb the skin before minor procedures<\/strong>: injections, blood draws, IV cannulation (especially in children), laser hair removal, tattoo work, superficial skin biopsies, and genital-area minor procedures. Apply a thick layer under an occlusive dressing at least 60 minutes<\/strong> before the procedure (max 5 hours).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \ud83d\udce6 Elke bestelling is gedekt door onze Reshipment Assurance Policy<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 als uw pakket niet binnen 20 werkdagen arriveert, sturen wij het opnieuw.<\/p>\n Onze generieke medicijnen zijn afkomstig van WHO-GMP gecertificeerde fabrikanten en worden wereldwijd verzonden in discrete, eenvoudige verpakkingen \u2014 geen medicijnnaam op de buitenkant van het pakket.

This is the same active composition as the original Astra brand EMLA Cream<\/strong>, which has been the global reference product for topical skin anaesthesia since the 1980s.<\/p>\n Prilox Cream is widely used in paediatric practice, aesthetic dermatology, and outpatient procedure clinics to reduce procedural pain without injected anaesthesia. In particular, it has transformed the experience of needle procedures (vaccinations, blood tests, IV cannulation) for children.<\/p>\n Area and dose limits<\/strong> depend on age and body weight:<\/p>\n Methaemoglobinaemia warning.<\/strong> Prilocaine can rarely cause methaemoglobinaemia — a condition where red blood cells cannot carry oxygen efficiently, giving the skin and lips a bluish tinge. Risk is highest in infants under 3 months, in patients with G6PD deficiency, and in those on methaemoglobin-inducing drugs (sulphonamides, nitrates, dapsone). Stick strictly to the age- and area-based dose limits above.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n MedsBase offers worldwide shipping on every order.

EMLA is the original Astra\/Recipharm brand; Prilox is a clinically equivalent generic.<\/p>\n At least 60 minutes, ideally 90–120 minutes for laser hair removal or deeper needle procedures. Do not apply less than 60 minutes before — the cream will not have penetrated sufficiently.<\/p>\n Without an occlusive dressing (clear plastic film, Tegaderm, or cling film), the cream mostly evaporates and absorption into the skin is minimal. The dressing is essential for the anaesthetic effect.<\/p>\n Skin remains numb for 1–2 hours after removing the cream. This is usually long enough for the procedure plus clean-up.<\/p>\n Yes, for laser hair removal, tattoo removal, or minor procedures — but avoid the area very close to the eyes (corneal injury risk) and do not apply inside the mouth or nose.<\/p>\n Yes, at age-appropriate doses. For most children above 1 year, Prilox is well tolerated. For infants under 3 months, use only on specialist medical advice because of methaemoglobinaemia risk.<\/p>\n No. Application on broken, infected, or eczematous skin leads to unpredictable systemic absorption and higher toxicity risk. Apply only to intact skin.<\/p>\n Transient blanching (whitening) of the skin is a direct effect of the vasoconstriction caused by the cream. It is common, harmless, and resolves within 1–2 hours of removal.<\/p>\n Yes — this is a common off-label use. Apply to the tattoo area 60–90 minutes before the session, under occlusive dressing. Discuss with your tattoo artist first; some prefer certain brands or avoid pre-treatment due to effect on skin elasticity.<\/p>\n Topical use for short courses in small areas is generally considered acceptable during pregnancy. Discuss with your obstetrician if larger areas or frequent use are planned.<\/p>\n Patients needing a faster-onset surface anaesthetic without the 60-minute occlusion required by EMLA can use Lox 2% Jelly (lidocaine 2% topical)<\/a> \u2014 onset within 2\u20135 minutes, well-suited to procedural numbing and as a topical aid for delayed ejaculation.<\/p>\n Zie ook:<\/strong> Lox 2% Jelly (lidocaine)<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 Neon Labs lidocaine 2% topical gel for haemorrhoids, urinary catheterisation, premature ejaculation and minor procedures.<\/p>\n Prilox Cream (lidocaine 2.5 % + prilocaine 2.5 %, the EMLA formulation)<\/a> needs 30\u201360 minutes under occlusion to work; for fast surface anaesthesia of skin or mucous membranes immediately before a minor procedure, Lox 10 % Spray (lidoca\u00efne 10 % plaatselijk)<\/a> delivers a metered dose with onset in 1\u20133 minutes.<\/p>\n Prilox Cream<\/a> combines lidocaine and prilocaine for topical numbing before minor procedures, while injected anaesthesia is frequently enhanced with Hynidase Injection (hyaluronidase 1500 IU)<\/a>, an enzyme adjuvant that improves dispersion and shortens the time to a working block.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Andere producten in Chronische aandoeningen<\/strong> die klanten ook bekijken:<\/p>\n \u2705 Topical numbing cream Prilox Cream contains Lidocaine & Prilocaine.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":58066,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[3141,3223,3555],"product_tag":[4412,4413,4414],"class_list":{"0":"post-58065","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-category-overview","7":"product_cat-chronic-conditions","8":"product_cat-pain-relief-medication","9":"product_tag-lidocaine","10":"product_tag-prilocaine","11":"product_tag-prilox-cream","13":"first","14":"instock","15":"shipping-taxable","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-variable","18":"has-default-attributes"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/58065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58065"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58066"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58065"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=58065"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=58065"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=58065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Waarom bestellen bij MedsBase<\/h3>\n
