The cream seems to penetrate quickly, IMO.

I only use intermittently anyway as lidocaine doesn't work as well as menthol for me. However my compounded cream has it as an ingredient and there is no warning about that specifically. But of course everyone reacts different. I'll certainly keep your warning in mind however.
