1 indications and usage zingo is indicated for use on intact skin to provide topical local analgesia prior to venipuncture or peripheral intravenous cannulation, in children 3â18 years of age. zingo is indicated for use on intact skin to provide topical local analgesia prior to venipuncture in adults.
Warnings and Cautions:
---------------warnings and precautions--------------- methemoglobinemia: cases of methemoglobinemia have been reported in association with local anesthetic use. (5.1) use on intact skin only (2.1, 5) avoid contact with the eye (2.1, 5) do not use if device is dropped or the pouch is damaged or torn (2.1) patients with bleeding tendencies or platelet disorders could have a higher risk of superficial dermal bleeding (5)
5 warnings and precautions do not use around the eyes. do not use zingo on body orifices, mucous membranes, or on areas with a compromised skin barrier. only use zingo on skin locations where an adequate seal can be maintained. patients with severe hepatic disease or pseudocholinesterase deficiency, because of their inability to metabolize local anesthetics normally, are at a greater risk of developing toxic plasma concentrations of lidocaine. patients with bleeding tendencies or platelet disorders could have a higher risk of superficial dermal bleeding. 5.1 methemoglobinemia cases of methemoglobinemia have been reported in association with local anesthetic use. although all patients are at risk for methemoglobinemia, patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia, cardiac or pulmonary compromise, infants under 6 months of age, and concurrent exposure to oxidizing agents or their metabolites are more susceptible to developing clin

Dosage and Administration:
---------------dosage and administration--------------- apply one zingo (0.5 mg lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate) to the site planned for venipuncture or intravenous cannulation, one to three minutes prior to needle insertion. (2.1) perform the procedure within 10 minutes after zingo administration. (2) use zingo only on intact skin. (2)
2 dosage and administration apply one zingo (0.5 mg lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate) to the site planned for venipuncture or intravenous cannulation, one to three minutes prior to needle insertion. perform the procedure within 10 minutes after zingo administration. use zingo only on intact skin. application of one additional zingo at a new location is acceptable after a failed attempt at venous access. multiple administrations of zingo at the same location are not recommended. when zingo is used concomitantly with other products containing local anesthetic agents, the amount absorbed from all sources should be considered, as local anesthetics are thought to have at least additive toxicities. 2.1 instructions for use prepare the treatment site and device : examine the treatment site to ensure that the skin is intact. clean the site, according to standard practice. visually inspect the pouch. do not use if the pouch has been torn, or damaged or if the device has been dropped. tear op

Use in Specific Population:
8 use in specific populations 8.1 pregnancy zingo was not formally evaluated for effects on reproduction. significant systemic exposure to lidocaine is not expected under recommended conditions of use of zingo as lidocaine levels were below the limit of detection in human studies. lidocaine has been previously tested for reproductive toxicity in animal studies, however. the following ratios are based on the assumption that the applied dose is completely absorbed through the skin. teratogenic effects pregnancy category b. lidocaine was not teratogenic in rats given subcutaneous doses up to 60 mg/kg [360 mg/m 2 or 1200-fold the single dermal administration (sda) of 0.5 mg lidocaine in a 60 kg individual (0.3 mg/m 2 )] or in rabbits up to 15 mg/kg (180 mg/m 2 or 600-fold the sda). there are, however, no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, zingo should be used during pregnancy only if clear

Overdosage:
10 overdosage in adults following a single administration of zingo the plasma levels of lidocaine were below the limit of detection (5 ng/ml). signs of central nervous system (cns) toxicity may start at plasma concentrations of lidocaine as low as 1000 ng/ml, and the risk of seizures generally increases with increasing plasma levels. very high levels of lidocaine can cause respiratory arrest, coma, decreases in cardiac output, total peripheral resistance, and mean arterial pressure, ventricular arrhythmias, and cardiac arrest. the toxicity of coadministered local anesthetics is thought to be at least additive. in the absence of massive topical overdose or oral ingestion, other etiologies for the clinical effects or overdosage from other sources of lidocaine or other local anesthetics should be considered. the management of overdosage includes close monitoring, supportive care, and symptomatic treatment. dialysis is of negligible value in the treatment of acute overdosage of lidocaine.
Description:
11 description zingo ® (lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate) powder intradermal injection system contains 0.5 mg of sterile lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate. the chemical name is 2-diethylamino-2',6'-acetoxylidide, monohydrochloride, monohydrate. the molecular formula is c 14 h 22 n 2 o · hcl · h 2 o with a molecular weight of 288.8 da. lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate, a local anesthetic of the amide class, has the following structural formula: lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate is freely soluble in water, soluble in alcohol and chloroform, insoluble in ether, and melts at around 74â79°c. zingo is a ready-to-use, sterile, single-use, disposable, needle-free delivery system. zingo consists of the following components: a drug reservoir cassette filled with 0.5 mg lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate as a powder with a nominal particle size of 40 µm, a pressurized helium gas cylinder, and a safety interlock. the safety interlock prevents inadvertent actuation of the device. once zingo is pressed against the skin, the interlock is released, allowing the button to be depressed to actuate the device. a sound similar to that of a popping balloon is emitted at the time zingo is actuated. structure formula
Clinical Pharmacology:

Clinical Studies:
14 clinical studies efficacy in adults the efficacy of zingo in adults was evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, parallel-arm, sham-placebo controlled trial in which adult patients who required a venipuncture or peripheral venous cannulation received either zingo or a sham placebo device. patients were treated with zingo or a placebo device at the antecubital fossa or back of the hand, between one and three minutes prior to venipuncture or peripheral venous cannulation. measurements of pain were made immediately following the procedure. efficacy was measured using a continuous 100 mm visual analogue scale ranging from 0 (âno painâ) to 100 (âworst possible painâ). many of the patients had chronic medical problems such as depression, hypertension, hypothyroidism, and hyperlipidemia and over one fourth of the population may have been at higher than average risk of dermal bleeding due to use of concomitant medications such as nsaids, aspirin, and corticosteroids. tre
