HEMOAL

Hemoal is a rectal ointment. It is ideal for treating the symptoms caused by the appearance of haemorrhoids, such as itching, pain and stinging sensation. It is an over-the-counter medicine from Reckitt Benckiser that acts as a pain reliever.

Hemoal Ointment

Hemoal is a Reckitt Benckiser brand consisting of ointments for rectal use and wipes for maintaining proper anal hygiene. Hemoal ointment is an over-the-counter medicine for the treatment of haemorrhoids in adults. Its use is indicated to alleviate the symptoms caused by haemorrhoids, including pain, itching and stinging.

Due to the combination of active ingredients such as benzoaine and ephedrine in its composition, Hemoal acts as a local anaesthetic. In addition, other ingredients such as zinc oxide, white petrolatum and lanolin alcohol are also present.

Difference between Hemoal and Hemoal Forte

There is only one difference between the two Hemoal medicines. Hemoal contains 30 mg of benzocaine per gram of ointment. In contrast, Hemoal Forte contains 60 mg of benzocaine per gram of ointment.

The rest of the active ingredients and components are the same in both medicines and in the same proportions.

Under no circumstances is Hemoal recommended for use in pregnant or breast-feeding women. If you wish to use Hemoal for any reason during this period, it is necessary to consult a medical expert or pharmacist and it is this person who will advise whether or not to use it. Farmaciasdirect has a team of pharmacists at your disposal to answer any questions you may have about the application of this medicine.

Hemoal for dark circles under the eyes?

There is an urban legend spread by different influencers and youtubers without health qualifications who have recommended the use of Hemoal as a treatment to eliminate and reduce dark circles under the eyes. Well, this is totally false.

Although Hemoal is a vasoconstrictor medicine, its application is exclusively for the anal area, as if it is applied to the perimeter around the eyes, it can cause some quite noticeable side effects. Its high benzocaine content, especially in the case of Hemoal Forte, can cause a high sensitivity of the skin to sunlight, so the risk of skin burns is very high.

At Farmaciasdirect we strongly advise against the application of Hemoal in areas close to the eye, as it can have harmful side effects for your health.

Can Hemoal be used during pregnancy?

It is recommended not to use Hemoal during pregnancy or breastfeeding without the supervision of a doctor. It is important to consult a healthcare professional before using any medicine or product during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
