How Pileum Rectal Cream works
Pileum Cream is a combination of six medicines: Lidocaine, Calcium Dobesilate, Hydrocortisone, Phenylephrine, Zinc Oxide and Troxerutin. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic which blocks pain signals from the nerves to brain thereby decreasing pain sensation. Calcium Dobesilate and Troxerutin are vasoprotective medicines which strengthen the blood vessels in the affected area.and promoting healing. Hydrocortisone is a steroid which reduces redness, itching, and swelling. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that shrinks the swollen blood vessels to further relieve itching and irritation in piles. Zinc Oxide has astringent and antiseptic action.

Quick tips
- Pileum Cream is prescribed for the treatment of piles.
- Apart from using Pileum Cream, you can indulge in warm baths. It may help soothe the area and thus may ease the pain.
- Don't ignore the feeling of needing to pass stools. Some people suppress this feeling and put off going to the toilet until later. This may result in bigger and harder stools forming that are more difficult to pass later.
- Do not take any oral laxative along with Pileum Cream without consulting your doctor.
- Sometimes certain medicines like iron tablets, antibiotics might cause constipation. Inform your doctor if you are taking any of them.
- A fiber-rich diet (wholegrain bread and cereals, fruit and green leafy vegetables) with six to eight full glasses of water each day and daily exercise are important in maintaining healthy bowel function.

Dear Sir, I am suffering from piles for last three year. Bleeding occurs occationally. Bleeding has occured 6 or 7 times in total for the last three years. It occurs when hard stool passes through anal.Generally my stool is smooth but when first part of my stool is hard and the remaining is smooth, bleeding occurs. After bleeding mild pain persists for a day or two but no burning. I have consulted a local doctor. He prescribed me ACID NIT 200. Yet bleeding occurs. Perhaps the frequency of bleedding is guadually increasing. It will be highly appreciated if you kindly consult me. Thanking you Yours sincerely PATIENT PATIENT professor Department of mathematics Behampore college West Bengal
