An adhesively applied patch for topical application to intact skin for producing effective anesthesia for varying amounts of time depending upon the extent of time the patch is applied. The patch includes an occlusive member mounted on an adhesive backing, the topical anesthetic agent being on a gauze-like pad received within the occlusive member such that penetration of the anesthetic agent into intact skin is enhanced. The anesthetic agent is preferably the amino-acyl amide type and virtually nonallergenic. Typical uses of such a patch are intradermal allergen skin testing, lunbar punctures, skin biopsies and minor surgical procedures.
