Ano-Metrogyl Cream

Ano-Metrogyl Cream contains Lidocaine (4% w/w) + Metronidazole (1% w/w) + Sucralfate (7% w/w). Prescription required.

Local treatment for anorectal conditions such as anal fissure and hemorrhoids (piles) with associated pain, burning/itching and suspected/associated local infection

Metronidazole is an antibacterial/antiprotozoal that inhibits DNA synthesis in susceptible anaerobic bacteria, reducing local infection and inflammation. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that blocks nerve sodium channels to numb the area and provide rapid pain relief.

For external use only. Clean and dry the affected anal area; apply a thin layer as advised by a doctor (commonly 2–3 times daily). Wash hands before and after application; avoid contact with eyes/mouth and do not apply on large open wounds unless prescribed.

Application site burning, itching, irritation, redness, dryness, numbness/tingling, allergic rash

External use only; do not ingest. Stop and seek medical advice if severe irritation, rash, swelling, bleeding, or no improvement occurs. Use with caution in patients with known allergy to metronidazole/nitroimidazoles or local anesthetics (amide type). Avoid prolonged or excessive use; apply only to affected area. Consult doctor before use in children, during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

With excessive use/absorption: warfarin and other anticoagulants (increased bleeding risk with metronidazole), disulfiram (neuropsychiatric reactions), alcohol (disulfiram-like reaction), other local anesthetics/antiarrhythmics (additive lidocaine effects)

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from light and moisture. Keep tube tightly closed and out of reach of children.
