Any ideas why lidocaine sometimes does not work?

Many reasons: You may have a liver enzyme system that requires more especially if you have previously taken drugs or alcohol. You may also have the wrong concentration. You may also metabolizre it quickly and require it more often. Discuss this with your doctor.
