Medicaine® Sting and Bite
Relief Formulation
Product
Description
Medicaine® Sting and Bite Relief is a James
Alexander Corporation proprietary formulation that provides relief
of pain and itching associated with insect bites and stings.
Active Ingredients
Medicaine® Sting and Bite Relief was developed
in accordance with the Food and Drug Administration's proposed rules
for over-the counter topical analgesic drug products and contains
two active ingredients (menthol and benzocaine) in the maximum allowable
concentrations:
Benzocaine -
An advisory panel investigating external analgesic drug products
for the FDA called benzocaine "one of the most widely used
and safest topical anesthetics found in OTC
preparations." Benzocaine acts by blocking nerve and pain
receptors.
Menthol - According to the FDA Panel, "When
applied to the skin, menthol stimulates the nerves for the perception
of cold, while depressing those which perceive pain.”
JAC has combined these two highly effective active
ingredients in a water soluble base that assures the formulation's
effectiveness.
Product Stability
JAC's Medicaine® Sting and Bite Relief Formulation
swabs carry a five (5) year expiration date, the maximum allowed
by the Food and Drug Administration.
Directions For Use
Reverse cardboard sleeve on swab. Crush ONCE between the
