Benzocaine is a local anesthetic (numbing medication). It works by blocking nerve signals in
your body.
Benzocaine topical is used to reduce pain or discomfort caused by minor skin irritations, sore
throat, sunburn, teething pain, vaginal or rectal irritation, ingrown toenails, hemorrhoids, and many other
sources of minor pain on a surface of the body. Benzocaine is also used to numb the skin or surfaces
inside the mouth, nose, throat, vagina, or rectum to lessen the pain of inserting a medical instrument such
as a tube or speculum.
Benzocaine topical may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
