Anusol Suppositories are a targeted internal treatment for the relief of hemorrhoids (piles) and other local anal irritations. Unlike creams or ointments that primarily treat the surface, suppositories are designed to be inserted into the rectum. Once inserted, they melt at body temperature to release active ingredients directly onto the sensitive internal tissues, providing a protective and soothing coating.
These suppositories are specifically formulated for internal anorectal comfort. They are used for:
Internal Hemorrhoids: Relieving the swelling, itching, and burning of piles located inside the rectum.
Anal Fissures: Soothing the pain and irritation associated with small tears.
Proctitis: Reducing inflammation of the rectal lining.
Pre/Post-Operative Care: Providing comfort and lubrication during recovery from anal surgery.
Zinc Oxide (296mg): An astringent that helps shrink swollen blood vessels and protects the skin from further irritation.
Bismuth Salts: (Bismuth Subgallate and Bismuth Oxide) Provide an antiseptic action and form a protective layer over raw tissues to facilitate healing.
Balsam Peru: A natural mild antiseptic that supports tissue repair.
Frequency: Usually one (1) suppository in the morning, one at night, and ideally one after each bowel movement.
Maximum Use: Do not use more than 4 suppositories in any 24-hour period.
Duration: If symptoms persist for more than 7 days, consult our pharmacist or your doctor.
Preparation: Wash your hands and the anal area thoroughly and pat dry.
Unwrap: Remove the suppository from its plastic or foil wrapping.
Positioning: Stand with one leg raised on a chair, or lie on your side with your top leg bent toward your chest.
Insertion: Gently push the suppository (pointed end first) as far as possible into the rectum using your finger.
Recovery: Remain still for a few minutes to allow the suppository to melt. Wash your hands immediately after use.
Tip: If the suppository feels soft, you can place it (still in the wrapper) in the refrigerator or under cold running water for a few minutes before unwrapping to make insertion easier.
Rectal Bleeding: If you notice blood in your stool or significant bleeding from the rectum, stop use and seek medical advice.
Allergies: Do not use if you are sensitive to any of the ingredients, particularly Balsam Peru.
Pregnancy/Nursing: Consult our pharmacist before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place ($<25°C$). If they get too warm, they will melt in the packaging.
Indicated For: Adults and children over the age of 12. For children under 12, use only under strict medical supervision.
Q: Can I use this with Anusol Ointment?
A: Yes. Many patients find that using a suppository for internal relief and the ointment for external soothing provides the most effective results.
Q: Will the suppository cause a bowel movement?
A: No, it is not a laxative. However, you should try to empty your bowels before inserting the suppository so the medication has time to stay in contact with the area.
Q: Is there a steroid in this version?
A: No. These standard Anusol Suppositories are steroid-free, making them safe for short-term use without the risks associated with topical steroids.
