Lidocaine-based Topical Anesthetic With Disinfectant (LidoDin) Versus EMLA for Venipuncture: A Randomized Controlled Trial
The Clinical Journal of Pain, 09/29/09
Shavit I et al. – To examine the efficacy and safety of a new topical anesthetic containing a disinfection ingredient (LidoDin cream) in reducing the pain associated with venipuncture by comparing it with the proven eutectic mixture of lidocaine 2.5% and prilocaine 2.5% (EMLA cream)...This pilot study demonstrated that LidoDin and EMLA seem to be equally safe and effective topical anesthetics for venipuncture. Future studies are planned to determine, if LidoDin reduces the rate of local skin infection in patients treated with multiple daily subcutaneous injections of medications.
