Pharmacology
Cinchocaine is a local anesthetic which relieves severe pain and relaxes sphincteric spasm. Hydrocortisone acts as an anti-inflammatory and anti-pruritic agent and thereby eliminates itching and inflammation. Neomycin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic which eradicates most infections which may already be present or arise in lesions of the anorectal area. Esculin improves skin vasculature and is effective in management of cellulitis.
Dosage & Administration
Ointment: A small quantity of the ointment should be applied with finger in the painful pruritic area in the morning and evening and after each stool. For deep application nozzle should be attached to the tube and inserted to full extent and should be squeezed gently from the lower end while withdrawing.
