How Does it Work
Tetracaine HCl 0.025% Popsicle is a topical solution designed to treat general throat pain. When applied to the affected area, it numbs the throat by interacting with the nerve endings responsible for transmitting pain signals. As a result, it relieves the discomfort caused by sore throat, as well as any other throat irritations. Upon application, the tetracaine hydrochloride is absorbed into the underlying layers of the throat tissue where it works to block the action of sodium channels, which are responsible for transmitting pain signals to the brain. This reduces the sensation of pain and discomfort in the throat. It is typically recommended to apply the popsicle directly to the affected area and leave it in place for up to 30 minutes. For best results, patients are advised to apply the popsicle several times a day.
Other Uses
Tetracaine HCl 0.025% Popsicle can be an effective treatment for a variety of conditions outside of general throat pain. It has shown potential for use on oral mucosa to reduce pain associated with dental or oral surgery, as well as reducing inflammation in canker sores. Additionally, this formulation has demonstrated some efficacy in postoperative analgesia following extraction of impacted third molars, for the treatment of burn wounds, and for the control of pain associated with both inflammatory and mechanical lesions of the oral cavity. When used for these conditions, the formulated product itself can provide a numbing effect, while also going to work on reducing inflammation and pain.
