What is Hemoal Forte and what is it used for?

It is a rectal ointment with local anaesthetic action for the relief of haemorrhoids in adults, thanks to its exclusive formula with benzocaine and ephedrine.

It comes in a practical 30 g pack.

Who it is indicated for

Intended for use in adults seeking relief from the pain, itching or stinging caused by haemorrhoids.

How to use

Apply a small amount of Hemoal Forte ointment morning and night on the affected anal area, previously washed and dried, using the tip of the finger. Wash hands after each application.

In case of use inside the anal canal, screw the cannula onto the tube and carefully insert a small amount of product inside. Remove and wash the cannula after each application.

Normal daily use is about 3 to 4 times a day. In total, treatment should not last more than 7 days, so consult a doctor if symptoms do not improve within this time.

Pharmaceutical opinion

Hemoal Forte for haemorrhoids is a medicine that uses the synergy of an anaesthetic and a vasoconstrictor to relieve the typical symptoms of this ailment such as itching and stinging in adults.

We recommend scrupulous hygiene of the area, especially after each bowel movement. It is best to use warm water and soap, although you can also use specific wipes. Once the area is clean, apply a thin layer every 8 hours.

Read the package leaflet included with this medicine carefully. If you are in any doubt, please consult our team of expert pharmacists.
