Suppositories Proctosan from hemorrhoids and the rules for their use

To date, in the fight against hemorrhoids, cracks in the anus, a huge variety of drugs have been developed, including ointments, suppositories, medications for oral administration. Proctosan suppositories are recognized as the most common targeted medication for hemorrhoids.

Proctosan is a modern antibacterial drug that helps in the fight against hemorrhoids, as well as eliminates symptoms, which accompany this disease, namely bleeding from the anus, inflammation of the mucous membrane intestines.

The tool effectively tightens wounds, helps with headaches, eliminates inflammation, itching. The patient wants to return to his usual life, without waiting for an exacerbation of the disease, rather to eliminate the itching, burning sensation in the anus. Unlike other similar medicines, Proctosan suppositories consist of only a few active ingredients. Despite the small amount of substances, the drug is effective.

Each candle has the following composition:

• Titanium dioxide - 100 mg.

As auxiliary components, candles include water, lanolin, paraffin, sorbitol solution. Everything that the suppositories contain is not absorbed into the large intestine in any way, all the components have an effect on the affected area itself.

The remedy is good because it is not absorbed into the bloodstream, despite its rapid penetration to the affected part of the rectum. Titanium dioxide is a complex, chemically mined compound.

Bismuth subgallate is an astringent substance capable of stopping blood well, disinfecting hemorrhoidal wounds.
