lidocaine with maalox

I think you will find relief with the benadryl and malox. If you can't get the rx with lidocaine, you may want to add in a dose of orajel (or other numbing gel for treatment of teething and/or canker sores). Should really help.

I would see a dentist to make sure what it is. In the mean time you can mix 1/2 and 1/2 liquid benadryl and maalox or other liquid indigestion medication and swish it around your mouth. Tht won't hurt you but y ou need to find out if the ulcer is due to yeast because you will need an anti-fungal to get rid of that.

Magic mouthwash relieves pain I swish it before eating and after eating. Kaiser prescribed it to me has lidocaine and statin antibiotic in Maalox solution.

However, if this problem has persisted for more than 2 weeks, you need to seek medical attention. You can try rinsing with warm salt water. However, if you have any open sores, this might burn and you may not want to try it. You can try sucking on pieces of ice. Also, I read that eating yogurt is helpful. Both because it can be cooling and that it can help heal mouth ulcers somewhat. You can also take Tylenol (acetaminophen) for the pain as well.

it’s a swish ‘n swallow concoction that typically has benadryl, Maalox and lidocaine; and sometimes nystatin to help with any fungal problems. It numbs on contact; most insurance covers it too, I think. Drs are usually familiar with it, it’s used in cancer chemo too.

There's only 2 things I know that cause this frequently while on hep c treatment...An oral fungal infection (like thrush) or a folic acid/ B-12 deficiency...Is your tongue bright red or have a whitish coating? Are you anemic? If it's fungal in origin, a simple mouth swish of a mixture of a children's thrush syrup, lidocaine, and Maalox (or just get a prescription of "Magic Mouthwash") and supplying a source of acidophilous (yogurt, capsules, etc) daily to your body...

It is a ‘swish ‘n swallow Rx concoction that contains various proportions of Maalox, benadryl (anti-inflammatory), lidocaine (anesthetic), and sometimes Nystatin (antifungal). It numbs on contact to make eating and drinking a bit easier, although it doesn’t last too long. Typically it’s prescribed to take 5-6 times daily, or as needed.

I mentioned it to a couple of dentists but they didn't have a clue. I was able to find internet reports of lots of other people with very similar symptoms and nobody was having much luck with getting medical help. It doesn't seem to be life threatening...just painful and annoying. I have never tried the Benadryl with Maalox. I've not heard of doing that. Is that something you have tried with success?

If you’re just trying to manage this, there’s a prescription product called ‘Magic Mouthwash’ that needs to be formulated by the pharmacist; it contains equal parts of Lidocaine, Maalox, and Benadryl—and sometimes Nystatin as well. This stuff numbs on contact, and provides near-immediate relief, but doesn’t often deal with the root cause. This **** can be a nuisance; I wish him well.

It’s a swish and swallow liquid that needs to be prescribed by a doctor, but works on contact. It contains lidocaine, Maalox, and Nystatin; it numbs on contact. You can also try eating some yogurt; and there are things like Biotene toothpaste and rinse that seem to help some too.

The magic mouthwash that I know of is maalox, benedryl, and lidocaine. It'll soothe the sores and make it feel better but it won't actually get rid of the thrush. I found, I was plagued with it for the last few months of tx. I took Nystatin continuously, found that, it didn't get rid of it but at least kept it at bay. The yoghurt with live cultures is a good suggestion, also acidopholus capsules.

No congenital defects have been reported with the use of simethicone. Animal studies with simethicone-coated cellulose suspension have not revealed maternal or fetal toxicity; however, animal studies are not always predictive of human risk. Simethicone-containing products should be used in pregnancy only when the maternal benefits outweigh the risks.It is still important to consult with your doctor before initiating any medications.

I read that lidocaine can cause a seizure. I have had injections many times with no problem. What could have gone wrong? This discussion is related to <a href="/posts/Dental-Health/Lidocaine-induced-seizure-during-dental-procedure/show/421187">Lidocaine induced seizure during dental procedure</a>.

s a combination of benedryl liquid, maalox and lidocaine, you swish it over the sores and it numbs and also heals them up faster. But you need to see a dentist or doctor for that. There are pastes in the dental isles for cankor sores that you could use to cover the sore and numb it, Canka makes one and I'm sure there are others.

Also, Maalox should be spaced out accordingly when taking other meds .. check with your pharmacist or Dr. to be certain of the # of hours inbetween taking Maalox and medications .. Maalox can absorb the meds and not let them work effectively.

I read later, it is common for women to have rt chest pain with a heart attack. Then, the well documented irregular heart beat with lidocaine. Now, I am certain that is what happened. It has scared me so badly (even though the pain relief was great). By the way, there was no mention of possible fatal side effects before hand. The pain relief will not help at all, if I am dead. So, if your cardiologist says NO.. That would definitely be my answer. NO.

this is a prescription medication that contains lidocaine, Maalox, and Nystatin that numbs on contact. It’s a swish ‘n swallow mix that needs to be concocted by your local pharmacy.

It’s compounded by the local pharmacy and can contain various proportions of Maalox, benadryl, lidocaine and Nystatin. It’s a swish ‘n swallow that is used several times a day and numbs on contact so at least you might be able to eat meals without too much pain. It’s often prescribed to cancer chemo patients; most doctors are at least vaguely familiar with it.

Is it safe to take Maalox or Gaveskon during pregnancy.?

You might ask your doctor for an Rx for ‘magic mouthwash’ if it persists; this is an rx concoction of lidocaine, benadryl and Maalox; sometimes they mix Nystatin in it as well. It numbs on contact, but only lasts a little while. A prescription typically says to ‘swish and swallow’ up to five times daily with it. This stuff is prescribed to cancer chemo patients routinely, so your doctor should be familiar with it. Have them call it in to the pharmacy; it needs to be mixed before hand.

Ive had aweful heartburn, tums arnt cutting it, my dr says i can take maalox but i was wondering if anyone knew a pill i could swallow for it?

Have you tried Magic Mouthwash? It’s a combination of lidocaine, benadryl and Maalox, with Nystatin sometimes thrown in to help with the fungus. It doesn’t seem to cure what ails you, but sure gives immediate if not temporary relief. It’s an Rx product; and is usually formulated at the pharmacy. I hope you get some relief; this stuff can play hell on the skin.

Hi Tam, There are no Dr's on this forum. I am not sure about Maalox, but I would check with the pharmascist. They tend to be the experts, even on over the counter medications. Good luck to you.

It is perfectly safe to take Benadryl, and maalox, I would check with your Dr about lidocain just be sure, but I'm sure it's ok as some pregnant are prescribed the lidicain patches for pain management.

You are not alone. My low level sore tongue / throat went from mild to really painful in two days after I noticed the white tongue and white patches on my cheeks. Damn if my dr thought I was nuts asking for magic mouthwash. I'm sure an oncologist would have heard of it as is common with chemo. I even faxed the mayo clinic recipe and he told me to try chloriseptic until our appointment in 2 weeks. I can hardly eat!

I am 36 wks and 5 days along. I have had issues with this for about a year before I got pregnant. I am taking over the counter medication that my doctor approved, however it has gotten insanely worse further into the pregnancy that it doesnt work!!! Does anyone have any safe remedies that work??? I dont sleep and I dont even want to eat or drink water but I do so because I know I need to for the baby. Any ideas would help!
