Dobesil-H Ointment

Dobesil-H Ointment Description:

Dobesil-H Ointment is a combination of four medicines: lidocaine, calcium dobesilate, hydrocortisone and zinc oxide. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic which works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain thereby decreasing pain sensation. Calcium dobesilate is a vasoprotective medicine which works by strengthening the walls of the small blood vessels to prevent bleeding. It also improves blood flow by decreasing viscosity/thickness of blood, thereby relieving inflammation (redness and swelling) in piles, and promoting healing. Hydrocortisone is a steroid which reduces redness, itching, and swelling. Zinc has astringent and antiseptic action.
