Where to buy BLT numbing cream
BLT (benzocaine, lidocaine, tetracaine) is not sold over the counter. Here is where licensed practices get it, what to check before you order, and what it should cost.
Your sourcing options
| Source | How it is made | Office use | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Compounding pharmacy (503A) | Per order, fresh | Varies by state for office use | Custom strengths, cream or ointment |
| Outsourcing facility (503B) | Batch, cGMP | Office stock | Fixed formulas, longer shelf life |
| Practice marketplaces | Resells 503A/503B | Depends on source | Convenient if you already buy there |
| Unverified websites | Unknown | Not compliant | Avoid: no license check, unknown potency |
State rules on office-use compounding differ. Ask your supplier how they handle your state, and see our 503A vs 503B guide for the background.
