Description

  • How Do Proctosedyl Suppositories Work?
    • Proctosedyl ointment and suppositories contain hydrocortisone, a steroid, and cinchocaine hydrochloride, a local anesthetic. These work together to reduce swelling and itchiness and numb pain.
    • Proctosedyl suppositories work by temporarily blocking the pathway of pain messages along nerve fibers.
    • This numbs sensation in the area where the medicine has been applied. It produces relief from pain and itching resulting from hemorrhoids, rectal fissures, and lumps.
