Anusol-HC is a prescription-strength, triple-action medication designed to treat internal hemorrhoids and rectal inflammation. Unlike the standard version, the "HC" formula contains Hydrocortisone, a mild corticosteroid. This addition provides a powerful anti-inflammatory effect that specifically targets the underlying cause of severe swelling and persistent itching, rather than just coating the area.
This 12-pack is used for the intensive management of anorectal conditions. It is used for:
Severe Internal Hemorrhoids: Rapidly reducing the size of swollen blood vessels.
Proctitis: Treating inflammation of the lining of the rectum.
Anal Pruritus: Stopping intense, persistent itching that has not responded to non-steroid creams.
Post-Surgical Care: Reducing post-operative inflammation after hemorrhoidectomy or other rectal procedures.
Hydrocortisone Acetate: A steroid that reduces the redness, swelling, and itching associated with inflammation.
Zinc Oxide: An astringent that protects raw tissues and helps shrink the swollen area.
Bismuth Salts: (Bismuth Subgallate and Bismuth Oxide) Provide a mild antiseptic action and form a protective barrier to aid healing.
Balsam Peru: Supports tissue repair and skin protection.
Standard Dose: Usually one (1) suppository in the morning, one at night, and ideally one after each bowel movement.
Maximum Duration: This medication should typically not be used for more than 7 consecutive days. Prolonged use of steroids in the rectal area can thin the skin.
Consistency: If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember, unless it is nearly time for your next one.
Preparation: Empty your bowels if possible, then wash and dry the anal area.
Unwrap: Tear the foil or plastic wrap to remove the suppository.
Insertion: Lie on your side with one knee drawn up. Gently insert the suppository (rounded end first) as far as possible into the rectum.
Wait: Remain lying down for about 5 to 10 minutes to allow the suppository to melt and the medicine to be absorbed.
Hygiene: Wash your hands thoroughly after application.
Short-Term Use Only: Due to the Hydrocortisone content, do not exceed the 7-day treatment window unless specifically directed by your doctor.
Infections: Do not use if you have a viral, bacterial, or fungal infection in the rectal area, as steroids can mask or worsen infections.
Bleeding: If you notice fresh blood in your stool or significant rectal bleeding, stop use and consult our pharmacist or your doctor immediately.
Pregnancy/Nursing: Hydrocortisone should only be used during pregnancy if the benefit outweighs the risk. Consult a healthcare professional before use.
Indicated For: Adults suffering from significant internal rectal inflammation and pain. It is generally not recommended for children under 18 unless prescribed by a specialist.
Q: How is this different from the regular Anusol?
A: The "HC" stands for Hydrocortisone. While regular Anusol soothes and protects, Anusol-HC actively reduces inflammation and immune response in the area, making it much more effective for painful or severely itchy piles.
Q: Can I use this for external piles?
A: Suppositories are designed for internal use. For external relief of severe inflammation, Anusol-HC Ointment is more appropriate.
Q: Why are there 12 in a pack?
A: This provides a full 4-to-6 day course of treatment (depending on the frequency of application), which is the standard timeframe for resolving an acute flare-up.
