Uniroid HC Ointment is a prescription-only treatment designed to alleviate the discomfort associated with haemorrhoids and other anal or rectal inflammatory conditions. It is suitable for both internal and external use, providing targeted relief from swelling, itching, and pain. This dual-action ointment is commonly prescribed for conditions like anal fissures, pruritus ani, and post-surgical irritation, offering a soothing and therapeutic solution for sensitive perianal skin.
How It Works
Uniroid HC contains two active components: hydrocortisone, a mild corticosteroid that reduces local inflammation, and cinchocaine hydrochloride, a fast-acting local anaesthetic. Hydrocortisone suppresses the body’s natural inflammatory response, helping to ease redness, itching, and swelling. Cinchocaine works by blocking nerve signal transmission in the affected area, providing rapid pain relief and reducing discomfort during bowel movements. Together, these ingredients support healing while enhancing patient comfort and improving quality of life during treatment.
Why Choose Uniroid HC
Uniroid HC Ointment is a trusted and effective option for managing haemorrhoidal symptoms. Its emollient base helps to moisturise and protect delicate skin while delivering therapeutic agents directly to the site of inflammation. The inclusion of a nozzle applicator ensures accurate and hygienic delivery for internal use. The ointment is well tolerated and can offer significant symptomatic relief within days of starting treatment. Its dual mechanism of action makes it especially useful in cases where both inflammation and pain are present.
Important Note
Uniroid HC is intended for short-term use only. Prolonged application, especially in the absence of medical supervision, may lead to localised side effects such as skin thinning or increased susceptibility to infection. Patients should wash their hands thoroughly before and after use and follow hygiene practices to avoid secondary irritation. Do not use the ointment on broken or infected skin unless directed by a healthcare provider. If symptoms do not improve within seven days or worsen, medical advice should be sought to rule out more serious conditions.
