Xylocaine 5% Ointment contains lidocaine 5%, a local anesthetic that produces temporary loss of sensation in the area where it is applied. Lidocaine works by blocking voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve membranes, preventing the initiation and transmission of pain signals.

The ointment may be used for localized anesthesia in appropriate clinical situations. Because absorption increases when large amounts are applied or damaged skin is treated, the recommended quantity and application area should be respected.
