EMLA Ordering

We learned something interesting yesterday, and perhaps you all already
knew this.  EMLA cream in the 30 gm tube does NOT come with any
occlusive dressing (ie Tegaderm) to apply it.  Only the 5 gm size
(usually good for 2 applications if needed) comes with the dressings. Go
figure...esp. since the parent will have to buy an additional box of
dressings to use it and it is a necessary part of the application
process.
