The hospital grade has benzocaine as an active ingredient and can be used prior to endoscopy or insertion of a breathing tube, etc.

The OTC grade has Phenol, which is a 'watered down version' of benzocaine.

Oftentimes, the hospital pharmacy will prepare a 1:1 mix of OTC Chloraseptic and benzocaine as a topical anesthetic for the throat.

Hope this helps.

First, is that right?  If so, is that considered slang?  Would you word it osmotic when it says "we will continue osm therapy with mannitol"?  Then, he goes on to say "we will follow osms and electrolytes."  If that's slang, how would you expand the second osm?
