How do I apply Climax control spray before sexual activity?
Short answer
Apply Climax control spray only to the area and in the amount listed on your prescription label. Typical directions are 3 sprays 10–15 minutes before activity, but follow your physician’s instructions. Wash your hands afterward, avoid broken skin, and ask how to prevent transfer to your partner.
Follow your prescribing physician’s instructions and the pharmacy label for where to apply Climax control spray. The typical directions listed are 3 sprays 10–15 minutes before activity, but your prescription takes priority. Ask the pharmacy to explain the application area if the label is not clear.
Apply only to intact skin as directed. Keep the spray away from your eyes and mouth, and do not inhale it. Do not spray into the opening of the penis or apply inside the body unless specifically directed. Wash your hands after use so you do not spread lidocaine to other areas.
Lidocaine can transfer to a partner and cause unwanted numbness. Ask your pharmacist whether and how to remove the product before contact, including oral sex. Also ask whether this specific formula is compatible with the condoms or barriers you use. Do not assume every compounded formula has the same ingredients or compatibility. Stop activity if either person develops pain, burning, or irritation.
