Orajel extra strength

Orajel extra strength and what it is used for
The name of your medicine is Orajel Extra Strength. It contains benzocaine at a concentration of 20% w/w.
Benzocaine belongs to a group of medicines called local anaesthetics. It provides rapid relief by numbing the area
and therefore reducing the pain.
Orajel Extra Strength is used to temporarily reduce the toothache pain associated with a broken tooth or in a
tooth where you may require a filling.
2. Before you use ORAJEL EXTRA STRENGTH
Do not use Orajell Extra Strength:
• If you have had an allergic reaction to benzocaine or any of the ingredients in the gel particularly sorbic acid. An
allergic reaction may include a rash, stinging, swelling or itching. This product contains sorbic acid, which may
cause local skin reactions (eg contact dermatitis).
• If you have been told by your doctor that you have difficulty converting a component of your blood called
methaemoglobin to haemoglobin. See section 4 for more details.

Taking other medicines
Do not use Orajell Extra Strength if you are taking any antibiotics called sulphonamides, for example
