CALCIUM DOBESILATE+HYDROCORTISONE+LIGNOCAINE+ZINC is used in the treatment of hemorrhoids (piles). It helps in relieving itching, pain, swelling and discomfort caused by piles and other problems in the anal area. Hemorrhoids are also known as piles, a medical condition that occurs when veins present in the anus and rectum area (the last part of the large intestine that ends up in the anus) swell and become painful.
CALCIUM DOBESILATE+HYDROCORTISONE+LIGNOCAINE+ZINC contains calcium dobesilate (vasoprotective agent), hydrocortisone (steroid), lignocaine (local anesthetic) and zinc (astringent). Calcium dobesilate acts on the walls of small blood vessels and reduces their delicacy and leakage. Also, it improves blood flow by reducing the thickness of blood and helps in relieving redness and swelling in piles. Hydrocortisone inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling caused by piles. Lignocaine decreases pain sensation by preventing the transmission of pain signals from nerves to the brain. Zinc acts as an astringent (shrinks pores and absorbs excess oils) and antiseptic.
