FAQs
How do I use Anusol suppositories?
Wash and dry the affected area with a soft towel before using Anusol suppositories.
Remove the suppository from its plastic cover and insert into your back passage, making sure it is far enough inside that it will not slip out.
Insert one Anusol suppository at night, one first thing in the morning, and one after every bowel movement.
What's the difference between Anusol ointment and Anusol cream?
Anusol cream and Anusol ointment contain the same active ingredients but at slightly different proportions.
The cream is designed to be easier to rub in whereas Anusol ointment has a thicker consistency.
Both products are designed for the treatment of less severe piles so it is essentially a preference.
The ointment works when applied to a gauze when used to treat external piles whereas the cream can be applied directly.
What is the difference between Anusol Suppositories and Anusol Plus HC Suppositories?
The suppositories are designed for internal piles and both can be used alongside the cream.
Anusol Plus HC contains two additional active ingredients, Benzyl benzoate and Hydrocortisone acetate, a steroid that reduces inflammation.
Products containing Hydrocortisone acetate cannot be sold without review by one of our pharmacists and customers will have to answer a few questions before they can add it to their basket.
Normal Anusol Suppositories can be bought without having to answer these questions.
What are piles?
Piles, or haemorrhoids, are swellings found around or inside your anus, at least 40% of people have piles in their lifetime.
They contain enlarged blood vessels and are usually painless, however, they can cause bleeding when you have a bowel movement.
If you have piles, you may also suffer from itching, swelling, or irritation around your anus.
What causes piles?
Many things have been linked to causing the increased blood pressure in the anus that results in piles.
This includes too much straining from experiencing constipation, caused by a lack of fibre.
Other factors include being overweight or pregnant, long-term diarrhoea, regularly lifting heavy objects and sitting down for long periods of time.
