Xylocaine 10% Spray

the membrane that surrounds the nerves, thereby preventing initiation and
conduction of impulses. Xylocaine 10% Spray 50 ml produces local numbness by
blocking the nerve signal in the affected area. Hence, Xylocaine 10% Spray 50
ml produces an anaesthetic effect and helps decrease the sensation of pain.
