Xyloproct Ointment 20g

Xyloproct Ointment is a combination topical treatment containing lidocaine (a local anaesthetic) and hydrocortisone acetate (a corticosteroid), together with zinc oxide and aluminium subacetate for their soothing, astringent properties. It belongs to the anti-haemorrhoidal preparations class, formulated specifically for use in the anorectal area. Common effects you might notice include mild local irritation, a temporary burning or stinging sensation, and skin sensitivity with prolonged use. Many people want to know how long they can safely use it and whether it's suitable if they have a skin infection in the area — both are worth confirming with a pharmacist before starting. It's intended for short-term, targeted relief rather than long-term daily use.

Adults typically apply the ointment as a thin layer up to 6g per day in total, or as advised by the prescribing doctor. Do not exceed the recommended frequency or duration, as prolonged corticosteroid exposure in this area is not advised.

• Local burning or stinging sensation
• Skin irritation or contact dermatitis

Xyloproct Ointment generally has a shelf life of around 18 months from manufacture when stored correctly and unopened. Always confirm the expiry date on the packaging before use.

Lidocaine (local anaesthetic) and hydrocortisone acetate (corticosteroid), combined with zinc oxide and aluminium subacetate.

Avoid use if you're allergic to lidocaine, hydrocortisone, or related local anaesthetics/corticosteroids, or if there's an untreated infection at the application site.
It should not be used by those on medication for irregular heartbeat (such as amiodarone or sotalol) unless supervised in hospital.

Caution is advised when used alongside other local anaesthetics (including dental injections), antiarrhythmic medicines, cimetidine, or beta-blockers, as these may affect lidocaine metabolism.
Inform your doctor of all medications you're taking, including other topical treatments.
