Thoughts on Benzocaine to numb taste buds?

[C_F]

I'm an incredibly slow drinker and getting down the SN is one of my fears. From time to time I've read Benzocaine can be helpful as it numbs taste buds. Thoughts?

Yes it definetely helps
I simulate spraying lidocaine before drinking 200ML vodka in 4 sips and it helped

Thats the product i used i bought OTC in any pharmacy

Yes, this may help.

Alternatives include: strong mouthwash, or some sweets to suck on.
