How safe is it to use pure lidocaine powder?

I would like to mix some with a cream as a pain relife for my back. The msds sheet that came with it makes me scared to even open it. Is it safe? If i mix 1 gram of lidocaine with 9 grams of cream does that give me a 10% Concentration?

In the proper concentrations, it may be safe enough to use, but I would do some more extensive research into it to find the appropriate dose to be on the safe side.
Wiki says it does help topically with itching, burning, and pain from skin inflammation, but it does have several contraindications:

* Heart block, second or third degree (without pacemaker)
* Severe sinoatrial block (without pacemaker)
* Serious adverse drug reaction to lidocaine or amide local anaesthetics
* Concurrent treatment with quinidine, flecainide, disopyramide, procainamide (Class I antiarrhythmic agents)
* Prior use of Amiodarone hydrochloride
* Hypotension not due to Arrhythmia
* Bradycardia
* Accelerated idioventricular rhythm

Needless to say, I’d be rather careful when dealing with something like this. I would also note that there’s a long list under drug interactions below that on Wiki, too.
Yes, if you mix 1 gram of Lidocaine into 9 grams of cream, it would be 10% Lidocaine… but you’d also want to make sure it was mixed really, really well so there aren’t any globs of Lidocaine that might cause irritation (or worse). Good luck!
