Indications & Uses
Cinchocaine + Hydrocortisone + Framycetin + Esculin is used to treat internal and external haemorrhoids, post-partum haemorrhoids, anal pruritus, peri-anal eczema, anal fissures and proctitis. It is also applied after haemorrhoidectomy to relieve pain and discomfort.
Pharmacology
Cinchocaine Hydrochloride is a local anaesthetic. It prevents or relieves the severe pain that sometimes comes with strangulated haemorrhoids, fissures and perianal haematomata. Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid and works as a decongestant, an anti-inflammatory and an anti-pruritic agent, so it clears itching, inflammation and mucous discharge. Framycetin Sulphate is a broad spectrum antibiotic, and it will eradicate most infections that are already present or that develop in lesions of the anorectal area. Esculin protects the skin.
Dosage Reference
Reference Information Only
Dosages shown are general references from official sources. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist for personalized dosing.
Adults:
Insert one suppository in the morning and in the evening, and also after each stool.
Dosage for other forms (1)
Use a small amount of the ointment on your finger and apply it to the painful or itchy area. Do this in the morning and evening, and after each stool. For deep application, push the cannula or applicator in as far as it will go, then squeeze the tube gently from the lower end while you pull the applicator out.
Side Effects
Using topical corticosteroids continuously for a long time should be avoided as far as possible. Over time they can cause atrophic changes in the skin, which means thinning, loss of elasticity, widening of the small blood vessels near the surface, telangiectasia and ecchymoses. These changes are particularly likely when occlusive dressings are used. Some of the corticosteroid can also be absorbed into the body. This may happen when large quantities are used, when it is applied to wide areas of the body or to damaged skin, when potent topical corticosteroids are used, and when the occlusive dressing technique is applied. Depression of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis may follow, with suppression of the adrenal gland. These effects are most likely to be severe in children. Growth may be retarded and a Cushingoid state may be produced. Benign intracranial hypertension has been reported rarely.
Cautions & Contraindications
Warnings & Precautions
Stop using Cinchocaine + Hydrocortisone + Framycetin + Esculin if sensitization occurs. Specific measures against infections, allergy and other causal factors must not be neglected. Prolonged use of Cinchocaine + Hydrocortisone + Framycetin + Esculin might, however rarely, produce systemic corticosteroid effects, and this possibility should be kept in mind. Patients should be told to inform any doctor they see later that they have used hydrocortisone before.
Contraindications
Don't use this medicine if you are known to be hypersensitive to any of its four ingredients: cinchocaine, hydrocortisone, framycetin or esculin. Corticosteroids have been shown to cause birth defects (teratogenicity) in animals when applied to the skin. These agents are absorbed through the skin, so the same effect after topical use can't be ruled out. For this reason, the product should not be used during pregnancy. Topical corticosteroid preparations are also contraindicated for herpes simplex, vaccinia or varicella, and for tuberculous infection of the anal region.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
Doctors don't yet know for certain whether topical corticosteroids are safe to use in pregnancy. So if you are pregnant, don't use them without need, don't spread them over large areas, don't use large amounts, and don't continue them for a long time.
⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Use in Special Populations
