What is Xyloproct Ointment?

Xyloproct Ointment is a topical medication used to alleviate the discomfort associated with haemorrhoids, also known as piles. It contains two active ingredients: Lidocaine, a local anaesthetic that numbs the affected area, and Hydrocortisone, a steroid that reduces inflammation.

What is Xyloproct Ointment used for?

Xyloproct Ointment is primarily used to treat haemorrhoids. It helps to relieve symptoms such as pain, itching, and swelling around the anus. This medication may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor or pharmacist.

How does Xyloproct Ointment work?

Xyloproct Ointment works by combining the effects of its two active ingredients. Lidocaine numbs the area, providing immediate relief from pain and discomfort, while Hydrocortisone reduces inflammation and swelling. Together, these ingredients help to alleviate the symptoms of haemorrhoids.
