Do not use for more than 5 days (prolonged use can alter the natural microbial balance of the mouth cavity and cause the spread of bacteria and fungi). Repeated or prolonged local anaesthetic treatment of the mucus membrane can increase the risk of adverse systemic effects such as central nervous system dysfunction (including seizures) and cardiovascular system depression.
