1. What is Bravera Control and what is it used for
Bravera Control contains lidocaine. Lidocaine acts as a local anesthetic.
The anesthetic effect of the medicine is to reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, in order to prolong
the time to ejaculation.
The medicine is indicated for use before intercourse in the case of premature ejaculation, in order to
reduce the sensitivity of the penis to touch and delay ejaculation (ejaculation).
If there is no improvement or the patient feels worse, a doctor should be consulted.
2. Important information before using Bravera Control
When not to use Bravera Control:
- if the patient or their partner has an allergy to lidocaine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if the patient or their partner has an allergy to other amide local anesthetics;
- if the patient's partner is pregnant;
- on damaged or inflamed skin.
Warnings and precautions
Before starting to use Bravera Control, the patient should discuss it with a doctor or pharmacist.
- If the patient has or has ever had liver or kidney problems, they should consult a doctor before using the medicine.
- If, during the use of the medicine, the patient or their partner experiences a rash or irritation, the use of the medicine should be stopped and a doctor consulted.
The medicine should not come into contact with the eyes and mucous membranes of the patient's or their partner's mouth, nose, and throat.
In case of contact with the eyes, they should be rinsed immediately with cold water.
During use, the medicine may also come into contact with the mucous membranes of other areas of the body,
such as the mouth, nose, and throat of the patient or their partner, causing temporary numbness. Since the effect of the medicine reduces the ability to feel pain in these areas, special care should be taken until the numbness subsides, to avoid injuring these areas.
During intercourse, a small amount of the medicine may be transferred, for example, to the vagina or anus.
As a result, partners may temporarily experience numbness and should be careful not to cause injury, especially during sexual activities.
