Short-term local anesthesia of the skin with minor surgical procedures.
Composition:
1 container contains 70 g of ethyl chloride.
Action:
Preparation for local anesthesia, by cooling or even freezing the tissue. Ethyl chloride is a liquid boiling at 12 ° C. Sprayed on the skin, after contact with the body, the ethyl chloride boils and evaporates rapidly, absorbing a lot of heat, resulting in a significant cooling and even local freezing of the sprayed fragment of the skin. This results in anesthesia of sensory nerve endings and elimination of pain sensation. It is absorbed through intact skin, respiratory tract and digestive tract. As a compound with lipophilic properties it easily penetrates into the tissues of the nervous system. The metabolism of the absorbed compound consists mainly of oxidation with the participation of cytochrome P-450 and coupling with glutathione with the participation of glutathione S-transferase. It is eliminated from the body through the respiratory tract and through metabolism.
Contraindications:
Hypersensitivity to ethyl chloride. Do not use on damaged skin or inhalation anesthesia. Do not use in children. Due to the toxic effects of ethyl chloride on the heart and lungs, the drug is not intended for general anesthesia.
Precautions:
Wear eye, nose and lips when applying the product on the face; do not eat food; Avoid inhaling gas vapors. Inhalation of ethyl chloride vapors results in abnormalities of o.u.n. It can trigger cardiac arrest and breathing; in case of cardiac arrest, the heart should be restored by applying an external heart massage with artificial respiration. It is particularly important to provide the patient with complete peace, even in the case of seemingly light poisonings. It is also necessary to provide sufficient heating of the body.
Pregnancy and lactation:
Do not use during pregnancy and during breastfeeding unless the potential benefits to the patient outweigh the risks to the fetus or child.
Side effects:
Low temperature of liquefied gas can cause local frostbite. The preparation may cause chronic contact dermatitis due to degreasing.
Dosage:
Externally, on the skin: spray the spray from a distance of 8-23 cm for 3-7 seconds.
