Germoloids® Ointment
Overview
Germoloids Ointment is a 4in1 Action formula that provides fast, numbing relief from the symptoms of haemorrhoids (piles):
▶Local anaesthetic pain relief
▶Soothes itching
▶Shrinks piles
▶Protects against infection.
Germoloids Ointment contains a local anaesthetic called lidocaine hydrochloride that helps to numb and soothe the pain, itching, and general discomfort associated with haemorrhoids.
The Ointment formula also helps to shrink the swollen haemorrhoids and protect sensitive, sore skin against infection thanks to the astringent and antiseptic properties of zinc oxide.
The oily nature of Germoloids Ointment means it can also act as a lubricant to help ease the passing of stools to avoid any further strain on an already sensitive area.
▶Suitable for internal and external piles
▶Applicator included for easy, hygienic use
▶Can be used during pregnancy & breastfeeding*
▶Available in 25ml and 55ml tubes.
This product is intended for use on or inside the anus and should not be ingested.
Germoloids is the UK’s No.1 best-selling haemorrhoids brand with an anaesthetic.**
