What is Mucopain Gel (Benzocaine) used for?

Mucopain Gel (Benzocaine) is a topical gel used to treat pain affecting the mucous membranes caused by mouth ulcers or other similar conditions. The medication operates by blocking nerve signals sent to the brain that indicate pain. Your doctor may also prescribe its use for the treatment of other unlisted conditions.

How should I use Mucopain Gel (Benzocaine)?

Mucopain Gel (Benzocaine) should be used according to your doctor`s instructions and those included with the packaging to get the safest and most effective results from treatment. The gel is normally applied as needed during the day to prevent pain and protect mouth ulcers affecting the mucous membranes. To administer the gel thoroughly clean your hands, apply a small amount of gel to your finger, and gently apply it to the affected area. It is not necessary to rub the gel into the membrane as the outer layer will protect the ulcer. Thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water following each application to prevent the medicine from contacting any areas not being treated. Ask your doctor any questions you have about the medication to ensure the correct usage.
