Frequently Asked Questions

How do these products work?

Gebauer’s Ethyl Chloride is a topical anesthetic skin refrigerant (vapocoolant) spray that creates an immediate cooling effect when applied to the skin due to the evaporation of the product from the skin’s surface. It is FDA approved to temporarily control the pain associated with injections, IV starts, venipuncture, minor surgical procedures, and minor sports injuries.

PainEase is also a topical anesthetic skin refrigerant designed to control the pain of similar minor procedures. Because it is non-flammable, it can be used for procedures that involve cauterization. It can be used prior to, or in some cases in place of, lidocaine injections.

The Cryo Professional portable cryosurgery system contains dimethyl ether propane spray that is applied to an applicator and then applied to skin lesions.

Spray and Stretch is a topical anesthetic skin refrigerant that helps temporarily decrease muscle pain, allowing the muscles to be stretched. It is indicated for treating muscle spasms, restricted motion, and minor sports injuries.

How quickly do they work?

These products work within seconds, making them efficient treatment methods.

Are they safe to use on children?

Published clinical trials support the use of Gebauer's Ethyl Chloride in children 3 years of age and older. PainEase is safe to use for children 4 years of age or older.

How long does the numbing effect last?

Both PainEase and Gebauer's Ethyl Chloride products provide roughly 60 seconds of anesthetic effect, enough time to complete a needle procedure or minor surgical task. Either can be reapplied if more time is needed.

What are the risks or side effects patients should know about?

The main risks of Ethyl Chloride and PainEase relate to overapplication, including possible frostbite or temporary changes in skin pigmentation, and, rarely, cutaneous sensitization. Neither product should be sprayed in the eyes, and caution is advised for patients with poor circulation or insensitive skin. Full risk and safety information is included with each product's instructions for use.

Are there any patients or procedures where these products shouldn't be used?

Ethyl Chloride is intended for intact skin only should not be used in patients with a known hypersensitivity to it. Because it's flammable, it should never be used near an open flame or electrocautery equipment. PainEase shouldn't be used on large areas of damaged skin, puncture wounds, animal bites, serious wounds, or genital mucous membranes.

Do I need special training or certification to use these products?

No specialized certification is required. Both are FDA-cleared medical devices that any licensed healthcare practitioner can use without a physician's order.
