THE BENEFITS OF NERVODERM

Nervoderm is a hydrogel patch that contains the active ingredient lidocaine (lignocaine), which provides pain relief without causing any numbness

Closed box of 5 Nervoderm patches

  • Targets post-shingles nerve pain symptoms - shooting, stabbing & burning pain

  • Up to 12 hour pain relief*

  • Can be used alone or together with other oral pain-relieving medications

  • Patients in a clinical study averaged at least 50% pain relief by day 72

Nervoderm works by preventing the damaged nerves from sending painful messages to the brain. Lidocaine absorbs continuously into the skin to help provide relief from nerve pain.*

In a clinical study where patients used Nervoderm2:

  • On average, after one week of use, pain levels were halved.
  • Average pain levels continued to decrease after 2-4 weeks of use.
  • Nearly 60% of patients had moderate to complete improvement of their pain after 4 weeks of treatment.
