Description
Anusol Suppositories provide targeted, effective relief for internal haemorrhoids (piles) and other related anorectal conditions. They are specifically designed to be inserted into the rectum to deliver active ingredients directly where they are needed most.
The formula works by reducing the swelling of the haemorrhoidal tissue, soothing the associated itching and burning, and providing a protective coating to ease the discomfort of bowel movements. Anusol is one of Ireland’s most trusted names in piles care, offering a reliable solution for those experiencing flares of internal discomfort.
Key Benefits & Features: Triple Action Formula
Anusol Suppositories use a proven blend of ingredients to provide comprehensive relief:
- Shrinks Piles: Helps to reduce the size of swollen haemorrhoidal tissue.
- Soothes Itching: Provides immediate relief from the persistent irritation and “prickling” sensation.
- Antiseptic Properties: Contains ingredients that help discourage bacterial growth in the affected area.
- Eases Discomfort: Protects the delicate internal lining, making bowel movements less painful.
- Discreet and Easy to Use: Specifically shaped for comfortable insertion and localised action.
How to use:
For the best results, consistency is key. Always wash your hands before and after use.
- Preparation: Ideally, use the suppository after a bowel movement.
- Positioning: Gently wash and dry the anal area. Remove the plastic cover from the suppository.
- Insertion: Lie on your side with your knees pulled up or stand with one leg raised. Gently insert the suppository (pointed end first) into the anus.
- Dosage: For adults, insert one suppository in the morning, one at night, and one after each bowel movement.
- Maximum Dose: Do not use more than 4 suppositories in a 24-hour period.
How long does it take for Anusol to work?
Many users feel a soothing effect almost immediately after insertion. However, to significantly reduce swelling and see a full improvement in symptoms, it is usually recommended to use the product consistently for several days. If symptoms do not improve within 7 days, you should consult your doctor.
Can I use Anusol during pregnancy?
Haemorrhoids are very common during pregnancy and after childbirth. While Anusol is a trusted brand, the HPRA guidelines suggest that if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this product.
Are there any side effects?
Anusol is generally very well tolerated. In rare cases, some individuals may experience mild sensitivity or increased redness/itching at the application site. If this occurs, stop use and speak with a healthcare professional.
