Lanacane 3% Anti-Itch Creme (30g)

Lancane cream 3% provides relief from itching, skin irritation, bites, and stings. Its active ingredient, benzocaine, effectively relieves dry, aggravated skin conditions, fast.

Lanacane cream also has an antiseptic cooling action, designed to soothe itching and irritation. The unique formula contains benzocaine 3%, which acts to form a protective film, covering irritated and inflamed tissue. Benzocaine will also act to numb the affected area, eliminating the discomfort and urge to scratch.

Lanacane cream 3% is ideal for use on dry skin conditions, such as insect bites, nettle stings, cuts & scrapes, and external anal or vaginal itching. As well as soothing skin, it will kill germs as well.

Adults and children over 12 years, apply Lanacane to the affected area. A 3-5cm strip of cream is usually sufficient. Repeat application, if required, up to three times daily.

Not everyone will experience side effects from using Lanacane cream. On very rare occasions, Lanacane cream can cause a skin reaction known as sensitivity. This reaction can be identified by a reddening of the skin, which is accompanied by minor swelling, blistering, and the itch or irritation becoming more intense. In the unlikely event that sensitivity should occur, or if Lanacane adversely affects you in any other way, stop using the cream and consult with your doctor or pharmacist.
