About this active substance

The combination of calcium dobesilate, lidocaine, and dexamethasone is used for the symptomatic treatment of hemorrhoids and other anorectal conditions associated with inflammation, pain, and itching. Calcium dobesilate has vasoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects, reducing capillary permeability and improving microcirculation. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that provides rapid pain and discomfort relief, while dexamethasone is a corticosteroid with strong anti-inflammatory properties.

The medication is available as creams, ointments, or suppositories and is applied locally, as directed by a doctor. The frequency of application and duration of treatment are adjusted based on the severity of symptoms.

Common side effects include local irritation, burning sensation, or itching. In rare cases, more severe adverse effects such as severe allergic reactions or increased sensitivity to lidocaine or dexamethasone may occur.

This combination is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women unless the benefits outweigh the risks. Patients should inform their doctor about all medications they are using to avoid drug interactions. Additionally, it is important for patients to follow application instructions to prevent adverse effects.
