2 | Upper GI Endoscopy | Didn't work long enough. | Had a dose immediately before Upper GI endoscopy/ultrsound. Wore off 10 minutes into procedure. Had to stop as even sedation could not stop my gagging/wretching. Glad I didn't remember. | M | 35 | 1 times | 5/8/2006 |
LIDOCAINE HCL VISCOUS (LIDOCAINE HYDROCHLORIDE): See also Warning section. Viscous lidocaine is used to relieve pain and discomfort from a sore throat/mouth. It is also used to numb the lining of the mouth and throat before certain medical/dental procedures (such as dental impressions). This numbing helps prevent the urge to close the throat (gag reflex), which might make the procedure more difficult. Lidocaine belongs to a class of drugs known as local anesthetics.
