Pramocaine (INN and BAN, also known as pramoxine) is a topical anesthetic used as an antipruritic.

The popular itch cream Gold Bond uses pramocaine hydrochloride to numb sensitive skin as well as does the pain relief variant of Neosporin and some formulations of Sarna. The hydrochloride salt form of pramocaine is water-soluble, and therefore more easily absorbed into the skin.
