Indications for the use of suppositories from hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoidal rectal drugs can have a diverse range of effects and are used in proctologic practice:

• at different stages of hemorrhoid treatment;

Pharmacodynamics

How does the suppository work from hemorrhoids? In order to understand this, it is necessary to understand what the causes of hemorrhoids are. Unpleasant sensations in the area of the anus are only external signs of the disease.

Signs of the effects of the drug appear within a few minutes after the introduction. The duration of the therapeutic effect depends on the time of active substances in the rectum, therefore it is recommended to apply Suppositoria rectalia for the evening, using them just before bedtime.
