Benzocaine

Benzocaine is a local anesthetic commonly used to numb specific areas of the body, such as the mouth, throat, or skin, to relieve pain or discomfort. It works by blocking nerve signals in the targeted area, providing temporary relief from soreness, itching, or irritation. Benzocaine is found in products like throat lozenges, sprays, and topical ointments. While effective when used as directed, overuse or excessive amounts can cause side effects or allergic reactions. It is important to follow usage guidelines and consult a healthcare professional if you have concerns or experience adverse effects.
