Scheriproct Ointment works fast and efficiently to relieve the size of lumps and hemorrhoids in the back passage. The treatment is a prescription-only drug for adults above 18 years. Scheriproct Ointment works for both internal and external hemorrhoids. The patient uses a washable application nozzle that is comfortable to insert in the rectum for internal treatment. For external hemorrhoids, the user should apply directly to the infected area. Consult the doctor for advice if you don't see any change in the piles after seven days.
Scheriproct Ointment is a dual-action steroid drug. The ointment contains two active ingredients, prednisolone, and cinchocaine. Prednisolone is a Corticosteroid, which relieves pain and inflammation. It works by reducing the chemical action within the body's cells that cause the skin to become red, itchy, and swollen. Cinchocaine is a local anesthetic that reduces pain and irritation caused by hemorrhoids. It works by blocking pain signals from reaching the brain. This produces a numbing effect on the area where Scheriproct ointment is applied.
Follow the guidance of your healthcare provider and read the instructions before use:
Scheriproct Ointment contains two active ingredients, cinchocaine hydrochloride and prednisolone hexanoate.
The other ingredients are macrogol-400-monoricinoleate, castor oil and chypre perfume oil.
Common side effects include:
If you experience severe side effects, consult your doctor.

Yes, Scheriproct Ointment can be applied internally using the applicator provided for the treatment of internal hemorrhoids.
3. How long does it take to work?
Relief from symptoms can start within a few days, but continue using as prescribed to ensure complete healing.
4. Is Scheriproct safe for long-term use?

5. Can Scheriproct be used during pregnancy?
Use of Scheriproct during pregnancy should be under the advice of a healthcare provider, as corticosteroids may have effects on pregnancy.
