L.E.T. (Lidocaine, Epinephrine, Tetracaine) Gels & Solution — Now with Improved Viscosity and Extended BUD

A solution of lidocaine, epinephrine and tetracaine (L.E.T) is a topical anesthetic typically used in emergency rooms, pediatric practices, and other urgent care settings. The most common application of L.E.T is to apply it to open wounds before suturing them1. QuVa dispenses L.E.T in syringes with doses ranging from 1.5 to 3.0 mL.

QuVa’s new, proprietary process and formulation* improves our L.E.T. gels and solution:

  • 3 viscosities to cover a broad range of application needs
  • Solution is sterile filtered with a 0.22 micron filter prior to addition of gelling agent
  • Improved viscosity of the Thick Gel provides better adherence at application site 5-6 months
  • Contains highly effective antimicrobial preservatives
  • Shelf life — increasing BUD reduces risk of wastage from expired medication
  • Room temperature storage to facilitate direct storage in your ED Med Dispensing Cabinets
  • Ready-to-administer — no weighing, mixing or stirring
  • Patent pending formulation

L.E.T. Formulation

L.E.T consists of a mixture of lidocaine, epinephrine and tetracaine which is primarily used on lacerations as a topical anesthetic. Lidocaine and tetracaine are both topical anesthetics which help to relieve pain, while the primary purpose of epinephrine bitartrate is to control superficial bleeding by vessel restriction and to slow down the rate of absorption of the anesthetics.



History

L.E.T has largely replaced the older formulation of tetracaine, adrenaline and cocaine (TAC), primarily due to cocaine’s high potential for dependency and logistics to order, handle, and store . A 1995 study published in Annals of Emergency Medicine showed no statistical difference in anesthetic effect between TAC and L.E.T, while eliminating the problematic use of cocaine.

Benefits

QuVa’s proprietary process and patent pending formulation provides our L.E.T products with a range of benefits. The different viscosities allow them to cover a range of application needs. For example, the thick gel provides better adherence at the application site. The longer BUDs reduce the risk of wastage due to expired medication.

Our LET products are ready to administer, so they don’t require weighing, mixing, or stirring. They can also be stored at room temperature, so you can keep them in an ED med dispensing cabinet. All three of QuVa’s products provide L.E.T in topical syringes, with 10 syringes per case.
