Faktu Ointment 30 gm

Description:

Faktu Ointment 30 gm is a topical prescription medicine used for the local treatment of hemorrhoids and other anorectal conditions. It combines the local anesthetic cinchocaine with the hemostatic and antiseptic agent policresulen to relieve pain, burning, and itching, while helping reduce inflammation and support healing of the affected rectal and anal tissues. It is intended for rectal and perianal use only and should be used under medical supervision.

Indications:

• Symptomatic treatment of internal and external hemorrhoids (piles).
• Relief of anal pain, burning, and itching associated with hemorrhoids.
• Adjunctive treatment in anal fissures and inflammatory anorectal conditions, as directed by a physician.
• Management of minor bleeding and inflammation in the anal and rectal area caused by hemorrhoidal disease.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Cinchocaine (local anesthetic) – exact concentration in this ointment is not specified in the available product information.
• Policresulen (hemostatic and antiseptic agent) – exact concentration in this ointment is not specified in the available product information.
• Other excipients: Full list of inactive ingredients is not available in the provided data. Refer to the package leaflet for complete composition.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as directed by your doctor or according to the instructions on the package leaflet.
• For external hemorrhoids: After gentle cleansing and drying of the anal area, apply a thin layer of Faktu Ointment to the affected external area 2–3 times daily, preferably after bowel movements and at bedtime.
• For internal hemorrhoids: Use the provided applicator (if included) or as instructed by your doctor to apply the ointment gently inside the anal canal, usually 2–3 times daily.
• Wash hands thoroughly before and after application.
• Do not apply to large areas of skin, open deep wounds, or severely damaged skin unless specifically instructed by your doctor.
• Do not exceed the recommended duration of treatment; prolonged use should be under medical supervision.
• If a dose is missed, apply it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose.

Clinical Benefits:

• Rapid local pain relief in hemorrhoids and anal fissures through the local anesthetic action of cinchocaine, which blocks pain signal conduction in nerves.
• Reduces burning, itching, and discomfort in the anal and rectal area, improving comfort during sitting and bowel movements.
• Policresulen helps control minor bleeding and supports healing of inflamed and damaged mucosa by its hemostatic and antiseptic properties.
• Helps decrease local inflammation and irritation, contributing to faster symptom relief and improved quality of life in patients with hemorrhoidal disease.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• For rectal and perianal use only. Do not ingest or apply to the eyes, mouth, or other mucous membranes.
• Do not use if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to cinchocaine, policresulen, other local anesthetics of the amide type, or any of the other ingredients in the product.
• Use with caution in patients with severe liver disease, as local anesthetics may be systemically absorbed.
• Do not use on large areas of damaged skin or for prolonged periods without medical supervision due to the risk of increased systemic absorption of cinchocaine.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or breastfeeding; use only if clearly needed and prescribed by a healthcare professional.
• Consult your doctor before use if you have severe bleeding from the rectum, unexplained rectal bleeding, or if symptoms are new or have changed significantly.
• Discontinue use and seek medical advice if symptoms worsen, do not improve within a few days, or if severe pain, heavy bleeding, or signs of infection (fever, pus, severe redness) occur.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical evaluation.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Side Effects:

• Common: Mild local irritation, burning, or redness at the application site, especially at the beginning of treatment.
• Less common: Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, swelling, or contact dermatitis in sensitive individuals.
• Rare but serious: Signs of systemic local anesthetic toxicity (e.g., dizziness, numbness around the mouth, metallic taste, ringing in the ears, tremors, or convulsions) if large amounts are absorbed; seek immediate medical attention.
• Stop using the product and consult a doctor if any severe or persistent side effects occur or if you suspect an allergic reaction (e.g., difficulty breathing, swelling of face, lips, or throat).
