Will lidoderm patches get you high?

No: No, but if you use them not as directed they can be dangerous, causing a toxic effect like ringing in the ears, tremors or even seizures. Use only as instructed!

Lidoderm patch high: Lidoderm patches should not get you high unless you are taking so many that you are getting a toxic level of Lidocaine in your system. The toxic effects of Lidocaine are more often seen when it is given intravenously but can occur by other routes. Lidocaine toxicity can be very dangerous. Only take medications as they have been prescribed.
