How it works
Sucrafil ANO Cream with Finger Gloves Free is a combination of three medicines: Lidocaine, Metronidazole and sucralfate. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic. It works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to the brain which decreases pain sensation. Metronidazole is an antibiotic that kills any harmful bacteria in the anal region and prevents infections. Sucralfate is a protective agent that forms a protective layer on the skin of the anal region and prevents any irritation, pain or burning sensation in the anus. This promotes wound healing and formation of new healthy skin.
Quick Tips
Sucrafil ANO Cream with Finger Gloves Free is prescribed to get relief from pain, swelling and other discomfort in the rectal area due to fissures. Indulge in warm baths to soothe the area and ease the pain. Don't ignore the feeling of needing to pass stools. Do not take any oral laxative along with Sucrafil ANO Cream with Finger Gloves Free without consulting your doctor. A fiber-rich diet with six to eight full glasses of water each day and daily exercise are important in maintaining healthy bowel function.
