Table of contents:

Anusol plus Suppository is a medication used for the relief of symptoms associated with hemorrhoids, such as swelling, pain, and itching. The suppository form of the medication is inserted into the rectum and slowly dissolves to release the active ingredients. Anusol plus Suppository contains zinc sulfate and pramoxine. It works by reducing swelling, irritation, and itching.

Use and Dosage

Anusol plus Suppository is typically used up to 3-4 times per day or as directed by a healthcare professional. To use Anusol plus Suppository:

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly and make sure the rectal area is clean and dry.
  2. Remove the suppository from its wrapping.
  3. Gently insert the pointed end of the suppository into the anus with your finger, pointed end first.
  4. Push the suppository in as far as it can go, about 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) into the rectum.
  5. Wash your hands again.
  6. Use the suppository 2 to 4 times a day, or as directed by your doctor.
  7. If the suppository is too soft to insert, place it in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before unwrapping it.

Do not insert more than three suppositories in one day. Do not use for longer than 7 consecutive days. If your symptoms do not improve or if they worsen, contact your doctor.
