Drug Details
Dibucaine, also known by the brand name Nupercainal, is an over-the-counter topical medication designed to relieve pain and itching associated with skin irritations and hemorrhoids. It may also be used for discomfort caused by sunburns, insect bites, minor cuts, burns, and other skin irritations. As a local anesthetic, Dibucaine works by numbing the nerves in the area where it is applied, reducing the sensation of pain. Although it is a cost-effective generic option, its effects are temporary, necessitating multiple applications throughout the day for continued relief. For any questions about its use or safety, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional.
