How to use Proctosedyl BD Rectal Cream

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor.

How Proctosedyl BD Rectal Cream works

Proctosedyl BD Rectal Cream is a combination of three medicines: Phenylephrine, Beclometasone and Lidocaine, which treats piles. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that shrinks the blood vessels in the affected area of skin and decreases swelling. Beclometasone is a steroid that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to the brain, thereby decreasing pain sensation.
