Question

From what you are saying, this is not a special formulation like I was hoping it was.

Is this the item?
http://www2.mooremedical.com/index.c...tail&PID=12546

Flavoring means that it may be used in the mouth or around the lips.
I suspect it is used for intubation of patients (nasogastric tubes etc).
It is a small jar, meaning original use is small applications.
The PDF on it, mentions dentistry, and application for painful dentures.

This product does not have the vehicle base as the link I gave, earlier.

Abstract;Lidocaine preparation on the market is difficult to less absorbable to normal skin. Whereas a lidocaine ointment prepared by our hospital contains oleyl alcohol, which is easily absorbed percutaneously and a surfactant as basements. Here, we report a case of intractable pain that was remarkably improved with the ointment. The relation between the blood concentration of local anesthetic and its analgesic effects was discussed. This preparation was effective for neuropathic pain of fingers after injury and neuropathy after herpes zoster. The maximum analgesic effects were obtained at the peak of blood lidocaine concentration, but it was used with safety. Therapeutic effects of the lidocaine ointment were satisfactory although its blood level was not so high.
