1. Relieves pain and fights infection
2. Forms long-lasting protective coating
3. Speeds healing

Iglu Gel is a soft, pale yellow, slightly opaque, oromucosal gel (a gel to be used in the mouth) with a characteristic peppermint odour containing two active ingredients Lidocaine hydrochloride and Aminoacridine hydrochloride:

• Lidocaine hydrochloride is a widely used local anaesthetic/painkiller
• Aminoacridine hydrochloride is an antiseptic that kills bacteria and helps prevent infection.

How to apply Iglu Gel:

For adults, the elderly and children (excluding infants and babies):

• For use in the mouth
• Apply sparingly, directly to the affected area(s) with a clean fingertip or cotton wool bud
• Re-apply as necessary - the aim being to keep the affected area(s) protected with a thin layer of gel

As a guide, each application should normally last for an hour or more, although eating and/or drinking may necessitate more frequent re-application. In some cases, applications may remain in place for several hours

• Do not apply excessive amounts
• Always follow the instructions in your own product

Iglu Gel active ingredients:

• Lidocaine hydrochloride 0.66% w/w
• Aminoacridine hydrochloride 0.05% w/w

It also contains carbomer, hydroxypropylcellulose, white soft paraffin, liquid paraffin and peppermint oil.

Before using Iglu Gel:

• Do not use the gel if you are sensitive to any of its ingredients

Pregnancy or Breastfeeding: Although there are no specific restrictions to using the gel during pregnancy or breast-feeding, the potential risks are unknown and caution should therefore be exercised, as with any medicine. Ask your doctor or a pharmacist for advice.

Keep the gel away from the eyes: In case of accidental contact, wash eye immediately with water: continue rinsing for 10 to 15 minutes, holding the eyelids well apart and avoid getting the rinse liquid into the other eye. Consult a doctor if irritation persists.

Overdosage is unlikely to be a problem because of the low formulated concentration and the small pack size. Inappropriate large doses may make swallowing difficult due to the loss of feeling. This may increase the risk of food or drink going down the wrong way. Generalised numbness of the mouth may also lead to biting the inside of your mouth when eating. Excessive overdose may also lead to generalised side-effects such as nervousness, drowsiness, breathing problems or low blood pressure. In such cases, seek urgent medical attention.

• If your mouth ulcer symptoms persist, seek medical advice

Like all medicines, the gel may have side effects: Hypersensitivity reactions to lidocaine hydrochloride and aminoacridine hydrochloride occur rarely. If you become wheezy or short of breath after using the gel, discontinue use and contact your doctor or a pharmacist immediately. If you are concerned about any other side effects, seek medical advice.
