In its composition, the agent contains the following active substances:

Pharmacodynamics and mechanism of action
The therapeutic effect is due to the substances included in the preparation:
- Heparin prevents thrombogenesis, prevents platelet aggregation, eliminates edema, accelerates the healing of damaged tissues, reduces the number of exacerbations of the disease. Heparin inhibits the reaction of blood coagulation and thrombus formation. In addition, it affects the inner layer of blood vessels, eliminates edema, and removes inflammation.
- Prednisolone refers to synthetic glucocorticosteroids with an average duration of action. It disrupts the synthesis of inflammatory mediators, reduces the release of exudate, eliminates the interaction of macrophage cells, target cells, cytokines involved in the development of allergies. Thus, prednisolone has anti-inflammatory, anti-exudative and antihistamine effect, eliminates the inflammatory process, as well as itching, burning, soreness in the perianal zone.
- Lidocaine prevents pain signals from nerve fibers. It is he who has a local analgesic effect. Thanks to this combination, the drug eliminates all the symptoms of hemorrhoids.

Opinion of patients
Nuances of using candles Gebryolone for the treatment of hemorrhoids can be determined by examining the patients' testimonials.
Work at me sedentary, therefore the hemorrhoids appear periodically. But the last time the pain was unbearable, and even bleeding every time after going to the toilet. I was very frightened and signed up for an appointment with the proctologist. The doctor looked and wrote out the candles of Gebryolon.
Already on the 5th day of using suppositories it felt much better. Shed hemorrhoids, bleedings have passed. Within 10 days of the disease, there is no trace left.

The first signs of hemorrhoids began during pregnancy, after the birth the disease intensified. I went to see the proctologist, he appointed Geispanol candles.
The pain went right away, it became easier after the first candle. Dissolve the suppositories quickly. And everything was fine, but on the fourth night I woke up from the severe, painful pain that I gave to my left arm. I thought that my heart would jump out of my chest, it lasted for about 5 minutes. Before that, my heart was not there.

specialist says. Despite its high efficiency, the preparation of Gebreolone has a number of contraindications. In addition, the drug has many side effects, especially when applied for a long time( more than 1 month).
Therefore, when using a medicine, you need to be very careful and with the slightest deterioration in health immediately stop treatment and go to the hospital to adjust the method of therapy.
Do not use the drug during pregnancy because of the glucocosteroid content. Prednisolone penetrates the placental barrier and can have a negative effect on the fetus. During this period, it is better to use other drugs, for example candles with sea buckthorn oil or Natalsid.
It is also worthwhile to refrain from using the drug during lactation. Glucocoestroids penetrate into the mother's milk, can harm the baby. Therefore, it is worthwhile to either transfer the child to the mixture or refuse treatment with suppositories.
Self-medication with the drug is not permissible, especially for a long time. The drug is dispensed from the pharmacy strictly according to the doctor's prescription.
