Dosage information

1. Daily Dose

The daily dose of Lox 2% jelly depends upon the anaesthetised area, the tissues' vascularity, individual tolerance, and the anaesthesia technique. Consult your doctor for the dosage needed to provide adequate anaesthesia. Following the prescribed dosage and consulting your doctor before exceeding it is essential.

2. Overdose

The Overdose of Lox 2% jelly can cause skin irritation, redness, and itching at the application site. If you suspect these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.

3. Missed Dose 

You may take the missed dose of Lox 2% jelly as soon as you remember, but if it's almost time for the next dose, skip it and continue with your regular dosing schedule; do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.

The mechanism by which Lox 2% Jelly is absorbed in the tissue involves the following steps:

• When Lox 2% Jelly is applied to the skin or mucous membranes, it diffuses through the tissues and into the nerve fibres.
• Once inside the nerve fibres, it binds to the sodium channels and blocks them, preventing the entry of sodium ions into the cells. 
• It results in the inhibition of electrical signal that transmits pain signals to the brain. 
• As a result, the affected area becomes temporarily numb or desensitised, relieving pain or discomfort.
• The duration and degree of numbness depend on the application duration and the thickness of the tissue being treated.
