The preparation "Proctosan". Reviews of doctors and consumers.

"Proctosan" drug reviews doctors describe as a combined drug, which is used to treat cracks in the anus , as well as hemorrhoids. This drug has anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and analgesic effect, reduces the tendency to bleeding and speeds up the regeneration of the mucosa. In addition, about the preparation "Proctosan" reviews of experts note the rapid development of its therapeutic effect. A rapid effect is achieved through a combination of medicinal components that increase the pharmacological action of each other. Let's consider the basic substances that make up the Proctozan.

Bufeksamak is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory substance that, when applied topically, also has analgesic activity. The mechanism of action of this substance is based on the ability to disrupt the metabolism of arachidonic acid by inhibiting the enzyme of cyclooxygenase. As a result, the synthesis of prostaglandins decreases, and the inflammatory process becomes less intense. The analgesic properties of bufexamak are based on a decrease in the synthesis of mediators of pain.

Bismuth subgallate is a component of Proctozan, which has a small disinfectant and astringent effect. The bismuth subgallate on the damaged tissues causes protein coagulation, resulting in the formation of a protective film. In this case, it is located only on erosive and damaged skin surfaces. Bismuth subgallate is also able to reduce bleeding in patients suffering from anal fissures and hemorrhoids.

Titanium dioxide is a mineral substance, which has an astringent and drying effect. This component of "Proctosan" accelerates the healing of cracks and the regeneration of tissues. Together with this, titanium dioxide increases the therapeutic effect of bismuth subgallate and bufeksamak.

Lidocaine hydrochloride is a drug that has pronounced local anesthetic activity. Lidocaine hydrochloride quickly causes the onset of an analgesic effect, relieves burning and itching in the region of the anus. This agent blocks the sodium channels of neuronal membranes and stabilizes the cell membranes. Lidocaine hydrochloride weakens the generation and conduction of impulses along nerve structures.
