Recticare Wipes are indicated for the temporary relief of pain, itching, and burning associated with hemorrhoids, pruritus ani, and other irritations of the perianal area. They are designed for external use only in the rectal region.

Recticare Wipes contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic that works by blocking nerve signals in the affected area. This reduces the sensation of pain and discomfort, providing temporary symptomatic relief when applied to the skin.

For external use only; avoid contact with eyes. Do not use on broken or damaged skin unless directed by a healthcare provider. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen after 7 days of use. Keep out of reach of children. This is a brand-name medication, so its cost may be higher than generic alternatives.
