Lidoject

Before taking lidocaine, tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions. Especially tell your doctor if you:

• are allergic to lidocaine or to any of its ingredients
• are allergic to other local anesthetics, including bupivacaine (Marcaine), etidocaine (Duranest), mepivacaine (Carbocaine, Prolocaine), or prilocaine (Citanest)
• have Stokes-Adams syndrome or Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome
• have sinoatrial, atrioventricular, or intraventricular block
• have or have had liver disease
• are having surgery, including dental surgery
• are pregnant or breastfeeding

Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed.

It is not known if lidocaine crosses into human milk. Because many medications can cross into human milk and because of the possibility for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants with use of this medication, a choice should be made whether to stop nursing or stop the use of this medication. Your doctor and you will decide if the benefits outweigh the risk of using lidocaine.

Store lidocaine at room temperature.

Keep this and all medicines out of the reach of children.
