<p>The local anaesthetic Cinchocaine Hydrochloride prevents or relieves the severe pain sometimes encountered in strangulated haemorrhoids, fissures and perianal haematomata, whilst the corticosteroid (Hydrocortisone) acts as a decongestant, anti-inflammatory and anti-pruritic agent and by so doing eliminates itching, inflammation and mucous discharge. The broad spectrum antibiotic, Framycetin Sulphate, will eradicate most infections which may already be present or arise in lesions of the anorectal area and Esculin has a skin protective action.</p>
