Description
What are Anusol Suppositories?
Anusol suppositories are a prescription treatment for piles (haemorrhoids). A suppository is a drug delivery device placed in the vagina, rectum or urethra. It releases its drug slowly inside the body. Anusol suppositories are placed in the rectum and have active ingredients that soothe and treat rectal discomfort and itching. Placing it in the suppositories in the rectum is easy and can be easily done at home.
How does it work?
The active ingredients in these suppositories are bismuth oxide, zinc oxide, balsam Peru, kaolin light, bismuth subgallate, kaolin light, hard fat, Miglyol 812, hydrocortisone etc. These ingredients provide a soothing effect at the local site and relieve pain, discomfort and itching associated with haemorrhoids. They also restrict bacterial growth.

These suppositories may be suitable for you if you have piles (haemorrhoids), rectal pain or itching and discomfort in the rectum anal fissures. This medicine may also be suitable for you if you can't take pills due to excessive vomiting or if the taste of the medicine is too repulsive.
