Emla is an over-the-counter topical patch that contains lidocaine (lignocaine) and prilocaine. It is applied directly to the skin to help lessen the pain experienced during needle insertions (e.g. blood sampling, vaccinations and superficial surgical procedures). Emla patches need to be applied at least 1 hour before your procedure. • Make sure that the area of the skin to be anaesthetised is clean and dry • Take hold of the aluminium flap at the corner of the patch and bend it backwards • Next, take hold of the corner of the beige-coloured patch layer • Pull the two layers apart, separating the adhesive surface from the protective liner • Making sure you do not touch the white round pad which contains Emla • Apply patch to the intended area and press firmly around the edges • Time of application can be marked onto the corner of the patch taking care not to press the centre of the dressing. (A ballpoint pen may be used for this purpose) • You can find out more about using Emla in the Consumer Medicine Information leaflet or by talking to your doctor or pharmacist Why use Emla Skin Numbing Patches?
