Prilibido Plus Gel is a specialized topical formulation marketed by STERIS Healthcare. The combination of Lidocaine and Prilocaine provides a more effective and deeper local anesthesia than either component used alone. It works by stabilizing the neuronal membrane, which prevents the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses.
It is clinically indicated for:
-
Surface Anesthesia: Numbing the skin before needle punctures, injections, or minor superficial dermatological procedures.
-
Sensitivity Management: Used topically to desensitize specific areas and reduce over-sensitivity.
-
Minor Procedures: Effective for numbing mucous membranes before small clinical interventions.
-
Dermal Procedures: Often used before laser treatments, tattooing, or hair removal to minimize discomfort.
The gel base is designed for optimal skin penetration, ensuring the anesthetic effect is achieved quickly and maintained for a sufficient duration.
Key Benefits
-
Dual Action: Combines two potent anesthetics for a faster and more reliable numbing effect.
-
Non-Greasy Base: Easy to apply and clean off after the desired effect is achieved.
-
Rapid Onset: Begins working shortly after application to the skin or mucosa.
-
Precision Control: Allows for localized numbing without affecting the rest of the body.
-
Trusted Quality: Manufactured by STERIS Healthcare to ensure pharmaceutical-grade safety.
Directions for Use

Wait Time: For skin, it usually requires 15–30 minutes to achieve full numbness.
