Hadensa Ointment is used to treat haemorrhoids (piles), anal fissures, and anal fistula. Hadensa Ointment relieves itching, pain and reduces bleeding, swelling associated with piles and anal fissures. Haemorrhoids, also known as piles, are the inflamed and swollen veins in the rectum and anus that cause discomfort, pain, and bleeding. An anal fissure is a small tear in the mucosa that lines the anus, which causes pain and bleeding during or after a bowel movement.
Hadensa Ointment is a combination of four drugs: Lanolin, Lignocaine, Menthol, and Thymol. Lignocaine blocks the pain signals from the nerves to the brain, thereby decreasing the sensation of pain. Menthol provides a cooling sensation, thus helping relieve pain. Lanolin moisturises the skin and prevents irritation. Thymol works by killing infection-causing micro-organisms. Thereby, Hadensa Ointment provides relief from pain and discomfort due to piles and anal fissures.
You are advised to use Hadensa Ointment for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition.

Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. If your condition does not improve even after using Hadensa Ointment for 2-4 weeks, please consult your doctor.
