Why New York Pharmacies Are Choosing LidoPro Patch for Workers’ Comp Pain Relief

LidoPro Patch for workers’ comp is quickly becoming the go-to option for New York pharmacies looking to offer effective, non-opioid pain relief.
Big wholesalers don’t carry it, the margins are tight, and patients still need results—fast. That’s where LidoPro Patch comes in.

LidoPro offers pharmacies a way to deliver high-quality, non-opioid pain relief to workers’ comp patients—without the supply issues or inflated costs of traditional channels. And right now, demand is surging in New York.

Why New York?

We’re focusing this rollout on New York pharmacies because that’s where we’re already seeing real traction. One of our long-term customers—who handles a large volume of workers’ compensation prescriptions—has been ordering over 100 boxes of LidoPro per month for several months straight.

The patch fits a critical need: topical, non-opioid relief that’s easy to dispense, cost-effective, and compatible with workers’ comp billing.

This isn’t about chasing trends. It’s about solving a specific problem in a state where the volume justifies the focus.

Two LidoPro Options, Same Lidocaine Power

We currently distribute two versions of the LidoPro Patch, both with 30 patches per box and 4% lidocaine as the primary pain-relieving ingredient. Here’s how they compare:

Product	NDC	Patch Count	Active Ingredients
LidoPro Patch – Original Formula	83881-0401-30	30 patches	Lidocaine 4%, Menthol 0.5%, Methyl Salicylate 0.1%
LidoPro Patch – Menthol-Enhanced Formula	53225-1123-03	30 patches	Lidocaine 4%, Menthol 1%

 

Both formulas provide up to 12 hours of pain relief and are ideal for:

• Strains and sprains
• Simple backaches
• Muscle stiffness and soreness
• Arthritis-related discomfort
• Bruising and soft-tissue injuries

Some providers prefer the original version for its added methyl salicylate (a topical NSAID), while others choose the enhanced menthol formula for a stronger cooling effect.

Both NDCs are active and billable under workers’ compensation in New York—and both are available now through Republic Pharmaceuticals at aggressive pricing.
