Scheriproct is a specialized rectal medication containing two active ingredients: Prednisolone hexanoate (a corticosteroid) and Cinchocaine hydrochloride (a local anesthetic). It works through a powerful dual mechanism: the Prednisolone reduces the internal swelling, redness, and "engorgement" of the hemorrhoidal veins by inhibiting inflammatory chemicals, while the Cinchocaine provides rapid, localized numbing of the pain and itching sensations. This combination effectively shrinks the piles (hemorrhoids) and breaks the "pain-itch-scratch" cycle, allowing the delicate rectal tissues to heal.
In Nigeria, Scheriproct is the premier clinical choice for managing acute episodes of internal hemorrhoids. It is available through registered pharmacies like Sanlive Pharmacy to ensure patients receive authentic, temperature-stable suppositories manufactured under strict pharmaceutical standards and stored in cool environments (below 25°C) to maintain the structural integrity and potency of the medicine.
Important: This is a specialized, short-term treatment. The "Duration" Rule: Do not use Scheriproct for more than 7 consecutive days. Prolonged use of steroids on thin rectal tissue can cause thinning (atrophy) of the skin or systemic absorption. The "Hygiene" Tip: For the medication to work effectively, it must be inserted after a bowel movement and proper cleaning of the area. Do not use if you have a viral infection (like Herpes), fungal infection, or tuberculosis in the affected area.
Scheriproct Suppositories are primarily used to:
Provide rapid relief from the Pain and Itching of internal hemorrhoids (piles)
Reduce the swelling and inflammation of Proctitis (inflammation of the rectal lining)
Assist in the healing of Anal Fissures (small tears in the lining of the anus)
Soothe post-operative discomfort following hemorrhoid surgery
Shrink "engorged" rectal tissues to make bowel movements less painful
Provide localized therapy that minimizes the side effects compared to oral steroids
Act as a foundational treatment for acute "flare-ups" of anorectal discomfort
This product is suitable for:
Adults experiencing significant pain or swelling from internal piles
Patients requiring a combination of a numbing agent and an anti-inflammatory
Individuals who have not found sufficient relief from standard "lubricating" ointments
Not recommended for: Children and adolescents unless specifically directed by a pediatrician. It is strictly contraindicated for individuals with a known hypersensitivity to "amide-type" local anesthetics or corticosteroids. Use with caution if you have a severely infected or bleeding wound in the rectum. Consult our pharmacist if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; while localized, steroids should only be used in pregnancy if the benefit outweighs the potential risk. Consult your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after 7 days, as a physical examination may be necessary.
For best results, use one (1) suppository daily, preferably after a bowel movement
The "Frequency" Rule: In severe cases, your doctor may suggest using one suppository two or three times on the first day only, then reducing to once daily.
Preparation: Wash your hands thoroughly. If the suppository feels soft, put it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before removing the foil.
The "Insertion" Technique: Remove the foil wrapper. Lie on your side with one knee bent. Gently insert the pointed end of the suppository into the rectum using a finger.
The "Absorption" Tip: Remain lying down for about 10 to 15 minutes to allow the suppository to melt and the medication to be absorbed.
Storage: Keep the pack in a cool, dry place. In hot climates like Nigeria, storing them in the refrigerator door (not the freezer) prevents them from melting in the box.
Scheriproct is effective and generally well-tolerated when used briefly, but some may experience:
A mild "burning" or stinging sensation immediately after insertion
Localized skin irritation or thinning of the rectal lining (with overuse)
Rare: Allergic reactions (rash or intense itching)
Rare: Masking of a local infection if used without an antibiotic when one is needed
Rare: Systemic steroid effects (only if used excessively for long periods)
Seek medical advice if you experience heavy rectal bleeding, a high fever, or if your symptoms worsen significantly after starting the treatment.

Can I use the cream and the suppositories together?
Yes. Often, the Scheriproct ointment is used for external discomfort, while the suppositories are used for internal relief. Our pharmacist can guide you on the best combination for your symptoms.
Will this cure my piles forever?
Scheriproct treats the symptoms and inflammation. To prevent piles from coming back, you should also focus on a high-fiber diet, drinking plenty of water, and avoiding straining during bowel movements.
What if I see blood on the suppository when it comes out?
Mild spotting is common with hemorrhoids, but if you experience significant bleeding (bright red blood dripping or soaking the tissue), you should stop use and see a doctor immediately.
