🩺 Clinical
Chiggerex is a topical cream containing benzocaine, a local anesthetic. This over-the-counter monograph product is typically used to numb minor skin irritation and reduce itching from insect bites, including chigger bites. Benzocaine works by temporarily blocking nerve signals in the area where it is applied. This product is marketed under the FDA's established rules for over-the-counter topical anesthetics rather than through individual product approval.
