Anusol HC Ointment contains hydrocortisone acetate to reduce inflammation and ease the pain and discomfort of haemorrhoids (piles), alongside active ingredients that soothe itching and irritation. Suitable for both internal and external haemorrhoids.
How It Works
Hydrocortisone reduces inflammation, while zinc oxide, bismuth compounds and balsam peru work together to soothe, protect and shrink haemorrhoidal tissue for multi-action relief.
How to Use
