Description
An effective solution for alleviating the pain, itching, and irritation associated with haemorrhoids, Anusol Plus HC Ointment combines five active ingredients to provide quick relief. Suitable for adults over the age of 18, this buff-coloured ointment is designed to reduce inflammation, soothe discomfort, and protect sore areas.
The five active ingredients in Anusol Plus HC Ointment are hydrocortisone acetate, a mild steroid that reduces inflammation; zinc oxide, an astringent that soothes and protects raw areas; bismuth salts, which possess antiseptic properties; balsam Peru, an ingredient that aids healing and provides protection; and benzyl benzoate, known for its mild antiseptic qualities.
Anusol Plus HC Ointment is specifically formulated to address the symptoms of both internal and external piles, as well as related conditions like anal itching. For optimal results, adults should clean the affected area and apply the ointment night and morning, as well as after each bowel movement, with a maximum of four applications in 24 hours. This product is not recommended for use beyond seven days or for individuals under the age of 18.
Always read product label and patient leaflet
