The following adverse drug reactions and incidences are derived from product labeling unless otherwise specified. Also see Lidocaine monograph. Frequency not defined.
Central nervous system: Burning sensation, localized warm feeling, paresthesia (localized), stinging sensation
Dermatologic: Localized erythema
Local: Localized edema
Hypersensitivity to lidocaine, menthol, local anesthetic of the amide type, or any component of the formulation; secondary bacterial infection at application site; traumatized mucosa. Contraindications may vary by product/formulation; also refer to manufacturer's labeling.
Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Hypersensitivity: Use with caution in patients with known drug sensitivities. Allergic reactions (cutaneous lesions, urticaria, edema, or anaphylactoid reactions) may be a result of sensitivity to lidocaine (rare) or preservatives used in formulations. Patients allergic to para-aminobenzoic acid derivatives (eg, procaine, tetracaine, benzocaine) have not shown cross sensitivity to lidocaine.
• Local effects: Irritation, sensitivity, burns (rare), and/or infection may occur at the site of application; discontinue use and institute appropriate therapy if local effects occur.
• Methemoglobinemia: Has been reported with local anesthetics; clinically significant methemoglobinemia requires immediate treatment along with discontinuation of the anesthetic and other oxidizing agents. Onset may be immediate or delayed (hours) after anesthetic exposure. Patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia, cardiac or pulmonary compromise, exposure to oxidizing agents or their metabolites, or infants <6 months of age are more susceptible and should be closely monitored for signs and symptoms of methemoglobinemia (eg, cyanosis, headache, rapid pulse, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, fatigue).
• Systemic adverse effects: Potentially life-threatening side effects (eg, irregular heartbeat, seizures, coma, respiratory depression, death) have occurred when lidocaine is used prior to cosmetic procedures. Excessive dosing for any indication (eg, application to large areas, use above recommended dose, application to denuded or inflamed skin, applying longer than recommended), smaller patients, and/or impaired elimination may lead to increased absorption and systemic toxicity. Patient should adhere strictly to recommended dosage and administration guidelines; serious adverse effects may require the use of supportive care and resuscitative equipment; lidocaine toxicity may occur at blood concentrations >5 mcg/mL.
Special populations:
• Acutely ill patients: Use with caution; acutely ill patients should be given reduced doses commensurate with their age and physical status.
• Debilitated patients: Use with caution; debilitated patients should be given reduced doses commensurate with their age and physical status.
• Older adult: Use with caution; elderly patients should be given reduced doses commensurate with their age and physical status.
• Hepatic impairment: Use caution in patients with severe hepatic disease due to diminished ability to metabolize systemically absorbed lidocaine.
• Pediatric: Use with caution; children should be given reduced doses commensurate with their age and physical status.
Dosage form specific issues:
• Benzyl alcohol: Some dosage forms may contain benzyl alcohol and/or sodium benzoate/benzoic acid; benzoic acid (benzoate) is a metabolite of benzyl alcohol; large amounts of benzyl alcohol (≥99 mg/kg/day) have been associated with a potentially fatal toxicity ("gasping syndrome") in neonates; the "gasping syndrome" consists of metabolic acidosis, respiratory distress, gasping respirations, CNS dysfunction (including convulsions, intracranial hemorrhage), hypotension, and cardiovascular collapse (AAP ["Inactive" 1997]; CDC 1982); some data suggest that benzoate displaces bilirubin from protein binding sites (Ahlfors 2001); avoid or use dosage forms containing benzyl alcohol and/or benzyl alcohol derivative with caution in neonates. See manufacturer's labeling.
• Polysorbate 80: Some dosage forms may contain polysorbate 80 (also known as Tweens). Hypersensitivity reactions, usually a delayed reaction, have been reported following exposure to pharmaceutical products containing polysorbate 80 in certain individuals (Isaksson 2002; Lucente 2000; Shelley 1995). Thrombocytopenia, ascites, pulmonary deterioration, and renal and hepatic failure have been reported in premature neonates after receiving parenteral products containing polysorbate 80 (Alade 1986; CDC 1984). See manufacturer's labeling.
• Topical gel (Rx): Avoid exposing application site to external heat sources (eg, heating pad, electric blanket). Keep away from open flame and do not heat, microwave, or add to hot water; flammable.
• Topical patch: Avoid exposing application site to external heat sources (eg, heating pad, electric blanket, heat lamp, hot tub).
• Topical spray (Rx): Avoid exposing application site to external heat sources (eg, heating pad, electric blanket).
Other warnings/precautions:
• Self-medication (OTC use): When used for self-medication, discontinue use and contact health care provider if symptoms persist >7 days, condition worsens or recurs, or if rash, irritation, itching, or skin injury (eg, pain, swelling, blistering) develops. Do not use on open wounds, cuts, damaged or infected skin; in the eyes, mouth, genitals; or any other mucous membranes. Do not use in large quantities, particularly over raw or blistered areas. Some products are not recommended for use with bandages; consult specific product labeling.
The FDA recommends against using topical OTC medications for teething pain as some products may cause harm; the use of OTC topical anesthetics (eg, benzocaine) for teething pain is also discouraged by AAP and The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAP 2011; AAPD 2012). The AAP recommends managing teething pain with a chilled (not frozen) teething ring or gently rubbing/massaging with the caregiver's finger.
Topical patches (both used and unused) may cause toxicities in children; used patches still contain large amounts of lidocaine; store and dispose patches out of the reach of children.

Prilocaine: Methemoglobinemia Associated Agents may enhance the adverse/toxic effect of Prilocaine. Combinations of these agents may increase the likelihood of significant methemoglobinemia. Management: Monitor patients for signs of methemoglobinemia (e.g., hypoxia, cyanosis) when prilocaine is used in combination with other agents associated with development of methemoglobinemia. Avoid lidocaine/prilocaine in infants receiving such agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy

Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with this combination. See individual agents.
It is not known if lidocaine or menthol is present in breast milk following use of this preparation. The manufacturer recommends that caution be exercised when administering lidocaine/menthol to breastfeeding women. See individual agents.
Lidocaine: Blocks both initiation and conduction of nerve impulses by decreasing the neuronal membrane's permeability to sodium ions, which results in inhibition of depolarization with resultant blockade of conduction.
Menthol: Dilates the blood vessels, causing a sensation of coldness followed by an analgesic effect; relieves itching.
Refer to individual agents.
