Safely Buy Anusol Plus Suppository ( Zinc sulfate/pramoxine - non Rx ) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Indications

Anusol Plus suppository is a rectal medication used to treat hemorrhoids and relieve associated pain and irritation.

The rectal suppository combines zinc, an astringent agent, with pramoxine, an anesthetic drug to provide relief from hemorrhoids. While pramoxine numbs your rectal area to reduce pain, zinc helps reduce inflammation to support the healing process of your hemorrhoids. Thanks to these actions, Anusol Plus suppository relieves irritation and pain caused by hemorrhoids while helping treat your condition.
