Section 4.5

New text added to end of section 4.5:

Drugs that reduce the clearance of lidocaine (e.g. cimetidine or beta-blockers) may cause potentially toxic plasma concentrations when lidocaine is given in repeated high doses over a long time period. Such interactions should therefore be of no clinical importance following short term treatment with lidocaine (e.g. Xylocaine spray) at recommended doses.

 

 

Section 5.3

Following sentence deleted:

Lidocaine is a well established active ingredient.

 

And replaced with following new paragraph

Genotoxicity tests with lidocaine showed no evidence of mutagenic potential. A metabolite of lidocaine, 2,6-xylidine, showed weak evidence of activity in some genotoxicity tests. The metabolite 2,6-xylidine has been shown to have carcinogenicity potential in preclinical toxicological studies evaluating chronic exposure. Risk assessments comparing the calculated maximum human exposure from intermittent use of lidocaine, with the exposure used in preclinical studies, indicate a wide margin of safety for clinical use.

 

Section 6.6

Following new sentence added:

The spray nozzle is bent to ensure correct spray function. Do not try to alter the shape as this could affect its performance.
