Used topically to relieve pain, itching, and discomfort associated with hemorrhoids and perianal conditions. May also be used for minor anal fissures and post-surgical perianal discomfort where local analgesia and venous support are beneficial.

Benzocaine acts as a local anesthetic by blocking sodium channels in nerve endings, preventing the initiation and transmission of nerve impulses. Diosmin, a flavonoid, improves venous tone, reduces capillary permeability, and has anti-inflammatory properties that help decrease hemorrhoidal swelling and improve microcirculation.

For external use only unless otherwise directed by a healthcare provider. Avoid application to large areas or broken skin. Not recommended for individuals with benzocaine allergy or methemoglobinemia. Consult a doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Discontinue use and seek medical attention if symptoms worsen or no improvement occurs after 7 days.
