Lidocaine is still a prescription drug so would still need a doctor to administer it.

You can get topical creams at a pharmacy or drug store without prescription.

Yes but you can't give it to people. I know this seems really weird but you can go buy it and use it for yourself, but that is it. As soon as you are giving to someone else it is being prescribed. So you go to a tattoo parlor and they offered you OTC lidocaine it would be prescribing. Call it stupid but that is the way it is.

Then my artist is a criminal 😅

It burns when they rub it into the tattoo and your arm feels like it is on fire, and then the drug hits your nerves and life is slightly better than 10 seconds ago
