Relispray EC (Ethyl Chloride) Spray 100mL

Product Registration Number: GA9596124-166770

Relispray EC Spray is a topical anaesthetic spray used to provide fast relief from minor pain and injuries. Ethyl chloride works by cooling the skin, numbing the affected area and offering immediate relief. It is commonly used as a topical anaesthesia before injection or minor surgery, muscle and myofascial pain. Ethyl chloride is a volatile liquid that evaporates quickly upon application, cooling the skin rapidly. The cooling effect numbs the nerve endings in the skin, reducing the sensation of pain. It provides temporary relief from pain by acting as a local anaesthetic. 

Indications:

• Pre-injection anaesthesia. 
• Topical anaesthesia in minor surgery. 
• Temporary relief of minor sports injuries (pain of bruises, contusions, swellings and minor sprains). 
• Spray and stretch technique for myofascial pain (low back pain due to muscle tightness, acute stiff neck, tight hamstrings, sprained ankle). 

Product Features and Benefits: 

• Fast-acting.
• Non-greasy. 
• Easy to use. 
• Portable. 

Directions For Use:
(a) Pre-injection anaesthesia

• Swab the treatment area with antiseptic. 
• Position the spray 3-9 inches (8-23cm) away from the skin, and spray continuously for 4-10 seconds. 
• Spray the area until the skin just turns white; do not frost the skin. 
• With skin taut, quickly perform the injection. 

(b) Topical anaesthesia in minor surgery

• Clean the operative site with an antiseptic. 
• Apply petrolatum to protect the adjacent area. 
• Position the spray 3-9 inches (8-23cm) away from the skin, and spray continuously for 4-10 seconds. 
• Spray the area until the skin just turns white; do not frost the skin. 
• Immediately make incision. 
• The anaesthetic action lasts a few seconds to a minute. 

(c) Temporary relief of minor sports injuries

• The anaesthetic effect rarely lasts more than a few seconds to a minute. 
• This time interval is usually enough to help reduce or relieve the initial pain of the injury. 
• Spray the affected area from a distance of 3-9 inches (8-23cm) for 4-10 seconds until the skin just turns white. 
• Use as you would ice. 

(d) Spray and stretch technique for myofascial pain

• Evaluation: Identify the active, irritated trigger point causing muscle tension and restricted motion. 
• Spraying: Hold the container upright, 12-18 inches (30-46cm) away and aim the stream at an acute angle, to lessen the shock of impact. Direct the spray in parallel sweeps until the entire muscle has been covered, from trigger point to the area of pain. 
• Stretching: Passively stretch the muscle while spraying, gradually increase force with each sweeps. As the muscle relaxes, increase the stretching until its maximum point. Rewarm the muscle and repeat procedure if necessary. Apply moist heat for 10-15 minutes after procedure.  

Cautions:

• Flammable. Keep away from heat and sunlight and do not expose to temperature exceeding 50ºC.
• Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, and broken skin. 
• Do not inhale the spray (may produce narcotic or general anaesthetic effect, and may product deep anaesthetic or fatal coma with respiratory or cardiac arrest). Use in a well-ventilated area. 
• Not recommended for long-term use or for people with respiratory conditions. 
• Consult a doctor if pregnant or nursing.
