I used it (Nitrobid) as part of a regimen for chilbains to redcue that pain in toes. It helped, but you must watch for intereqactions iwht other drugs. It is not coimpatible with many other drugs.

Nick is your lidocaine cream prescription? I was just at neurologist and she tried to prescribe lidociane creme and it would not process. I was told I needed to buy it over the counter.

hmm…interesting. Are you in the UK and that may therefore be the difference?. I’m in the US. The thing is, I’ve had it prescribed years ago, so I’m not sure what’s gone on. Insurance covers my lidocaine patches, just not the crème.
