How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (LIDOCAINE). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

Lidocaine stabilizes the neuronal membrane by inhibiting the ionic fluxes required for the initiation and conduction of impulses, thereby effecting local anesthetic action.

Half-life1.5–2.0 h
Mostly cleared after≈ 8.8 hfive half-lives — our arithmetic
How the body breaks it down

Lidocaine is metabolized rapidly by the liver, and metabolites and unchanged drug are excreted by the kidneys.
