A member asked:
Could you become allergic to lidocaine all of a sudden?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Lidocaine is an amide type local anesthetic and in general low in allergy potential. However anything that you are exposed to can create an allergic response after the initial exposure. So yes although not common you can develop an allergy to Lidocaine all of a sudden.
