Overview
Anusol Suppositories contain a combination of active ingredients that work together to relieve the symptoms of internal haemorrhoids. They help reduce inflammation, soothe irritation, and provide relief from itching, burning, and discomfort.
The suppositories are designed to be inserted into the back passage, where they dissolve and deliver targeted relief. They are particularly suitable for treating internal piles and can be used during flare-ups to help ease symptoms and promote comfort.
Regular use as directed, along with lifestyle measures such as a high-fibre diet and adequate fluid intake, can help manage haemorrhoid symptoms and reduce recurrence.
