Haemorrhoids, also known as piles, are swollen or enlarged blood vessels that can lead to discomfort, itching, and bleeding, particularly after a bowel movement. They may occur internally (inside the anus) or externally (outside the anus).

Germoloids Cream is used to alleviate the symptoms of both internal and external haemorrhoids as well as anal itching (pruritus ani). This cream helps relieve pain, swelling, and irritation associated with piles.

The cream contains two active ingredients: zinc oxide and lidocaine. Zinc oxide has astringent properties, causing contraction when applied to the skin, which helps reduce swelling. It also offers soothing and protective effects for the area around the anus, protecting it from damage and providing antiseptic qualities. Lidocaine acts as a local anaesthetic, relieving swelling, pain, irritation and itching.

The emollient base of the cream helps make stool passage easier and reduces straining during bowel movements, which can worsen haemorrhoids.

Active substances: zinc oxide (6.6% w/w) and lidocaine hydrochloride.

Other ingredients: emulsifying wax, white soft paraffin, methyl salicylate, methyl hydroxybenzoate (E218), butyl hydroxybenzoate, and water.

Product Information Leaflet

Please refer to patient information leaflet.

Wash your hands before and after using the cream.

Adults and children aged 12 years and over:

  1. Before using the cream for the first time, check that the tube seal is not broken.
  2. Remove the seal by peeling it from the tag.
  3. For external haemorrhoids, apply the cream directly to the affected area.

For internal haemorrhoids: Screw the applicator nozzle onto the tube and apply some cream to the outside of the nozzle. Carefully insert the applicator into the anus. Gently squeeze the tube while slowly withdrawing the nozzle so that the cream is gently distributed up the anus.

  1. Replace the cap firmly after use. Keep the tube of cream, cap, and nozzle clean.

Apply the cream to the affected area at least twice a day with a minimum of 3 to 4 hours between applications. Further applications can be made at any time of day and are particularly recommended after a bowel movement.

Do not use the cream more than 4 times in any 24-hour period.

DO NOT use Germoloids Cream:

  • If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to zinc oxide, lidocaine, or any of the other ingredients in the product.

Before using Germoloids Cream, consult your doctor if you:

  • Continually suffer from haemorrhoids or have severe haemorrhoids.
  • Experience excessive bleeding.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding: You may use Germoloids Cream if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, but as with all medicines at this time, you should discuss it with your doctor first.

Contains methyl hydroxybenzoate (E218): This ingredient may cause allergic reactions (possibly delayed).
