Anusol-HC (cream or suppository) is a steroid medicine that is used for temporary relief of itching, swelling, or irritation caused by hemorrhoids or other conditions around your anus (the opening to your rectum). Anusol-HC is also used with other medicines to treat ulcerative colitis.
ANUSOL includes zinc oxide (sometimes formulated as zinc sulfate, depending on the product), which goes a long way toward healing and protecting sensitive, damaged skin. It also includes pramoxine, an analgesic, to numb the pain associated with hemorrhoids.
To apply the product to the outside of the anus only, use your finger to apply a small amount of cream or ointment to the affected area and rub in gently.
