Has anyone used L-M-x 4% Cream for insect bites? How was your experience with the side effects?
I've recently been prescribed L-M-x 4% Cream for some painful insect bites. The cream seems to work well in numbing the area, but I'm a bit concerned about the possible side effects. Has anyone else used this cream for similar issues? I'd love to hear about your experiences, especially if you've encountered any of the more severe side effects like allergic reactions or methemoglobinemia. Any tips on how to avoid or manage these would be greatly appreciated!
