Product introduction
Cremagel-H Cream is a medicine used in the treatment of anal fissure (tear in the lining of the anus). It helps reduce pain, burning, and swelling. It also protects from infection and promotes the healing of fissures.
Additionally, Cremagel-H Cream forms a protective coating on the affected area and prevents any irritation, pain, or burning sensation in the anus. This promotes wound healing and protects the affected area from further injury.
Cremagel-H Cream should be used in the dose and duration as directed by your doctor. Clean and dry the affected area, and gently apply it over the affected area. Make sure to wash your hands thoroughly before and after applying this medicine. Do not stop using it suddenly without talking to your doctor, as it may lead to worsening your condition.
Avoid getting it into your eyes, nose, or mouth. In case of accidental exposure, wash them with plenty of water and seek medical attention. You should stop using it and inform your doctor if you notice worsening of the infection or if you develop increased redness and irritation.
On application, the medicine may cause burning sensations, tingling, and rashes. However, these are temporary and usually resolve with time. If you experience any other side effects that you think are caused by the medicine, you should let your doctor know. They may be able to suggest ways to reduce or prevent the side effects.
To make sure it is safe for you, always tell your doctor what other health conditions you have and what other medicines you are taking. If you are pregnant, thinking about becoming pregnant, or breastfeeding, ask your doctor before taking this medicine.

Benefits of Cremagel-H Rectal Cream
In Treatment of Anal fissure
Anal fissure is a small tear in the lining of the anus that may occur when you pass hard or large stools. Anal fissures typically cause pain while passing stools. Cremagel-H Cream has a numbing agent that decreases pain sensation in the affected area and helps in passing the stools easily. It also has an antibiotic property and prevents any infections in the anal area. Applying Cremagel-H Cream gives relief from pain, swelling, irritation, itching, or burning sensation caused by an anal fissure. It promotes healing and helps with faster recovery. Make sure to avoid spicy, oil-rich food and take plenty of fiber to aid in digestion and ensure speedy recovery.

How Cremagel-H Rectal Cream works
Cremagel-H Cream is a combination of three active ingredients: metronidazole, lidocaine, and sucralfate. Metronidazole is a potent anaerobic antibacterial agent that eliminates infection-causing bacteria and helps prevent the spread of infection. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that blocks pain signals from the nerves to the brain, providing quick relief from pain, burning, and discomfort. Sucralfate is a cytoprotective agent that forms a protective barrier over the affected area, aiding in ulcer healing and promoting faster recovery of damaged tissue. Together, these ingredients relieve pain, reduce infection, and support the natural healing of the anal mucosa.

Quick tips
- Cremagel-H Cream is prescribed to relieve pain, swelling, and other discomfort in the rectal area caused by fissures.
- In addition to using Cremagel-H Cream, you may take warm sitz baths, which can help soothe the area and ease pain.
- Do not ignore the urge to defecate. Delaying bowel movements can lead to the formation of harder, larger stools that are more difficult and painful to pass.
- Avoid taking any oral laxatives along with Cremagel-H Cream unless advised by your doctor.
- Some medicines, such as iron supplements or certain antibiotics, can make stools harder to pass. Inform your doctor if you are taking any of these.
- A fiber-rich diet (including wholegrain bread, cereals, fruits, and green leafy vegetables), adequate hydration with six to eight glasses of water daily, and regular physical activity are essential for maintaining healthy bowel movements and preventing constipation.
