More information about Anugesic HC
Anugesic HC is used to effectively relieve the symptoms associated with haemorrhoids, more commonly known as piles. Administered in the form of a 30g topical cream, it can be used by men and women over the age of 18 who are currently dealing with the uncomfortable symptoms of haemorrhoids, as well as other skin irritations in the anal region. This treatment should be applied twice a day, after bowel movements.
Anugesic HC cream contains various ingredients that work together to treat and reduce the symptoms of haemorrhoids. One of the main ingredients is pramocaine hydrochloride, a local anaesthetic that works almost straight away to block pain impulses from the affected area. While the pramocaine provides relief from symptoms, another active ingredient hydrocortisone prevents the release of chemicals that causes inflammation of the haemorrhoids.
The other ingredients such as benzyl benzoate, bismuth oxide, peru balsam and zinc oxide in Anugesic HC have an analgesic and antiseptic effect on the areas where it's applied, which also helps blood vessels narrow and lowers the risk of infection and irritation.
Anugesic HC works three ways to provide relief from the painful symptoms of haemorrhoids. This includes pain and itching, particularly after a bowel movement, and also reduces the risk of infections. In addition to this, these treatments also aid healing by reducing swelling of blood vessels in the rectum, along with changes to your diet as well.
Anugesic-HC cream contains benzyl benzoazte (1.2%), bismuth oxide (0.875%), hydrocortisone acetate (0.5%), Peru balsam (1.85%), pramocaine hydrochloride (1%), zinc oxide and (12.35%). Anugesic-HC suppositories contain buff, benzyl benzoate 33mg, bismuth oxide 24mg, bismuth subgallate 59m, hydrocortisone acetate 5mg, Peru balsam 4mg, pramocaine hydrochloride 27mg, and zinc oxide 296mg.
Anugesic HC cream comes in a tube and can be bought from HealthExpress in a dosage of 30g. Usage is simple and more details can be found in the attached patient information leaflet when you buy the treatment, or at the bottom of the page.
