Lidocaine\u00a0hydrochloride contained\u00a0in\u00a0Lidocaine\u00a0Accord may also be approved for the treatment of other conditions not mentioned in this product information.\u00a0Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or other healthcare professional if you have any further questions, and always follow their instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires sharpened attention.\u00a0One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or\u00a0side effects.\u00a0Descriptions of these effects and\u00a0side effects\u00a0can be found in other sections.\u00a0Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.\u00a0If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        How to use Lidocaine Accord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Lidocaine\u00a0Accord is given by a doctor.\u00a0It will be given to you as an\u00a0injection\u00a0into a vein, a muscle, under the skin, or in the\u00a0epidural space\u00a0(part of the spine).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The dose\u00a0given by your doctor depends on the type of pain relief you need.\u00a0It also depends on your body size, age, state of health, and what part of the body the drug is injected into. You will receive the lowest possible\u00a0dose\u00a0that gives the desired effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Use for children and adolescents<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Dose\u00a0one should be reduced to children and patients with the impaired general condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
