PA Criteria Criteria Details

Other Criteria

*Topical lidocaine ointment is used for temporary anesthesia. Prescription renewals for longer than 3 months require clinical documentation of medical necessity. Due to Safety Concerns higher quantities and prolonged use are not recommended. Renewal Duration: 3 months *Approval can made up to an additional 50gms per 30 days. Higher additional quantities are not approvable *FOR ADULTS: A single application should not exceed 5 g of Lidocaine Ointment 5%, containing 250 mg of lidocaine base (equivalent chemically to approximately 300 mg of lidocaine hydrochloride). This is roughly equivalent to squeezing a six (6) inch length of ointment from the tube. In a 70 kg adult this dose equals 3.6 mg/kg (1.6 mg/lb) lidocaine base. No more than one-half tube, approximately 17-20 g of ointment or 850-1000 mg lidocaine base, should be administered in any one day. FOR CHILDREN: For children less than ten years who have a normal lean body mass and a normal lean body development, the maximum dose may be determined by the application of one of the standard pediatric drug formulas (e.g., Clark's rule). For example a child of five years weighing 50 lbs., the dose of lidocaine should not exceed 75-100 mg when calculated according to Clark's rule. In any case, the maximum amount of lidocaine administered should not exceed 4.5 mg/kg (2.0 mg/lb) of body weight ***Lidocaine toxicity resulting from transcutaneous absorption is theoretically possible. Signs and symptoms of systemic lidocaine toxicity include CNS excitation and/or depression, nervousness, confusion, dizziness, tinnitus, blurred or double vision, vomiting, twitching, tremors, seizures, unconsciousness, respiratory depression, bradycardia, hypotension, and cardiopulmonary arrest. If there is suspicion of lidocaine-related systemic toxicity, check lidocaine blood concentrations
