Anugesic HC is a treatment for haemorrhoids, also known as piles, which is available as a topical cream.
The medicine contains a corticosteroid, to reduce the inflammation, and a local anaesthetic to relieve the symptoms of itching and discomfort of piles.
Haemorrhoids (piles) are swollen lumps filled which blood which develop inside and around the anus. It is possible to be unaware of the condition, but they can cause several unpleasant symptoms including:
Diagnosis of haemorrhoids is usually made based upon the physical symptoms alone. For suspected internal haemorrhoids, your GP may request a physical internal examination of your rectum or refer you to a colorectal specialist.
If it is the first time you are experiencing haemorrhoids, or if you experience any rectal bleeding, you should see your doctor as soon as possible.
The main cause of haemorrhoids is often associated with excessive pressure exerted upon the blood vessels surrounding the anal area. There are a number of factors which contribute to the development of haemorrhoids, including:
There are a number of ways you can prevent piles, including drinking plenty of water, eating a healthy and balanced diet enriched with fibre, and exercising regularly.
Anugesic HC contains a corticosteroid, hydrocortisone, and a local anaesthetic called pramocaine hydrochloride.
The corticosteroid (hydrocortisone) reduces inflammation at the site of application by preventing cells from producing inflammatory chemicals. By preventing this immune response, the inflamed blood vessels return to their normal size.
Pramocaine hydrochloride is a local anaesthetic which prevents pain signals from being sent to the brain. It works by numbing the nerves in the affected area relieving the pain and discomfort of haemorrhoids.
Together, both active ingredients in Anugesic HC work to reduce the swelling and itching of piles.
Anugesic HC cream can be used to treat both external and internal piles, using the plastic applicator nozzle supplied with your medicine.
You should use Anugesic HC cream once in the morning, once in the evening, and after each bowel movement.
Always remember to wash your hands before and after each application of Anugesic HC.
Always wash the nozzle after each use in hot soapy water.
All medicines carry the potential of causing unwanted side effects, though not everyone experiences them. You should familiarise yourself with the possible side effects and cautions associated with using Anugesic HC, which you can find in the patient information leaflet supplied with your medicine.
If you are concerned about any of the side effects, or have any questions regarding your condition or treatment, speak to your doctor.
The most common side effect of Anugesic HC cream is a burning, itching or stinging sensation which is felt around the site of application, especially if applied to broken skin. This side effect tends to be mild and goes away after a short time.
Using Anugesic HC cream for more than 7 days can be harmful. Overuse can cause the skin to thin, develop a striped appearance or impact the blood vessels beneath the skin.
If you notice any side effects, whether they are listed here or in the patient information leaflet, report them to your doctor.
If you experience the signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop using Anugesic HC and seek immediate medical attention.
Symptoms of an allergic reaction include:
Anugesic HC is not suitable for everyone. Do not use this treatment if you:
In order to determine whether Anugesic HC is suitable for you, please inform your doctor if you:

If you have medicine you no longer need, take it to your local pharmacy to dispose of safely.
Always keep medicine out of the sight and reach of children.
While it is unlikely that alcohol will interact with the medicine, you should avoid alcoholic and caffeinated beverages while undergoing treatment for haemorrhoids.
You should avoid or limit your alcohol consumption while being treated for piles. Alcohol can cause dehydration, leading to constipation which worsens the symptoms of piles.
