💡 Quick Answer — What is Anovate Cream?
Anovate Cream contains beclometasone dipropionate 0.025% + phenylephrine 0.1% + lignocaine 2.5% — a topical anorectal combination (corticosteroid + vasoconstrictor + local anaesthetic) for symptomatic relief of haemorrhoids — pain, itching, swelling, and discomfort with passing stools. Apply a small amount inside and around the anus 2–3 times daily, particularly after bowel movements. Use the applicator nozzle for internal application. Course should be limited to 7 days. Anorectal steroid creams are for symptomatic relief — they do not treat the underlying haemorrhoid. Address constipation, fibre intake, and prolonged toilet sitting for definitive management.

What Anovate Cream is and how it works
Anovate Cream contains beclometasone dipropionate 0.025% + phenylephrine 0.1% + lignocaine 2.5%. Beclometasone is a topical corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and itching. Phenylephrine is an alpha-1 adrenergic agonist that constricts dilated haemorrhoidal vessels, reducing swelling. Lignocaine (lidocaine) is a local anaesthetic that blocks sodium channels in nerve fibres, providing rapid pain relief lasting 1–2 hours. The triple combination targets the three main symptoms simultaneously. Manufacturer: GSK (WHO-GMP certified).
Indications
- Internal and external haemorrhoids — symptomatic relief (pain, itch, swelling, bleeding).
- Anal fissures — adjunct to definitive treatment (sitz baths, fibre, GTN ointment, surgery).
- Pruritus ani — short-term symptomatic relief.
- Post-haemorrhoidectomy pain — early postoperative period.
How to apply
- Empty bowel and clean the anal area with mild soap and water; pat dry.
- Apply a small amount around the anus and to external lesions 2–3 times daily, particularly after bowel movements.
- For internal application: use the supplied applicator nozzle inserted gently into the anus.
- Wash hands before and after application.
- Limit course to 7 days continuous use; reassess if no improvement at 1 week.
⚠️ Treats symptoms, not the cause — Anorectal creams give symptomatic relief but do NOT cure haemorrhoids. The underlying cause must be addressed: dietary fibre 25–30 g daily, 2 L water daily, avoid prolonged toilet sitting, treat constipation with osmotic laxatives, sitz baths. For grade III/IV haemorrhoids or persistent bleeding, see a colorectal specialist for banding, sclerotherapy, or surgery.
Side effects
- Common: mild burning, stinging, transient irritation at application site.
- Less common: skin thinning with prolonged use, contact dermatitis to lignocaine.
- Rare: systemic effects from extensive prolonged use (HPA-axis suppression from steroid; hypertensive episode from phenylephrine in cardiac disease).
Contraindications
- Local viral, bacterial, or fungal infection.
- Hypersensitivity to lignocaine, corticosteroids, or phenylephrine.
- Severe cardiovascular disease (uncontrolled hypertension, severe coronary disease) — phenylephrine caution.
- Pregnancy: limited use under guidance only.
- Children under 12.
When to seek medical advice
- Persistent rectal bleeding (more than 7 days, or new onset over age 40).
- Black tarry stools (suggests upper GI bleeding).
- Severe pain, fever, or systemic symptoms.
- Lump that does not reduce, or progressive pain.
- No improvement at 1 week.
Storage
Store below 25 °C in the original tube. Keep tube tightly closed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Anovate Cream shrink haemorrhoids permanently?
No — it provides symptomatic relief only. Definitive treatment requires lifestyle (fibre, water, avoid straining), procedural (banding, sclerotherapy), or surgical management for severe cases.
How long can I use Anovate Cream?
7 days maximum continuous use. Long-term use causes skin thinning around the anus and steroid dependence. If symptoms persist beyond 7 days, see a clinician.
How quickly does it work?
Lignocaine provides anaesthetic relief within 5–10 minutes. The steroid effect (reduced swelling, itch) takes 1–3 days. Phenylephrine reduces swelling immediately.
Can I use Anovate Cream for anal itching alone?
Yes — short-term (5–7 days) symptomatic relief is reasonable. Persistent anal itching often signals an underlying cause (dietary, infection, dermatitis) that needs assessment.
Is rectal bleeding always from haemorrhoids?
Most rectal bleeding in young adults is from haemorrhoids or fissures. New rectal bleeding over age 40, persistent bleeding, weight loss, or change in bowel habit must be investigated for inflammatory bowel disease, polyps, or colorectal cancer. Never assume bleeding is “just haemorrhoids” without medical assessment if you are over 40 or symptoms persist.
Can I use Anovate Cream in pregnancy?
Limited focal short-course use under medical guidance is generally acceptable, since haemorrhoids are very common in pregnancy. Discuss with your prescriber.
Is Anovate Cream safe with my heart medication?
Phenylephrine can rarely cause systemic effects (palpitations, transient blood pressure rise) with extensive use. If you have severe heart disease, severe hypertension, or take MAOIs, discuss with prescriber.
Should I use Anovate Cream before or after a bowel movement?
After. Cleanse the area, dry, then apply. Re-apply if irritation worsens.
How do I prevent haemorrhoids returning?
Daily fibre (25–30 g — beans, lentils, whole grains, fruit, vegetables), 2 L water, avoid prolonged toilet sitting, avoid straining, regular exercise, address chronic constipation with osmotic laxatives.
When do I need surgery?
Grade III prolapsing haemorrhoids requiring manual reduction, Grade IV irreducible prolapse, persistent bleeding causing anaemia, or thrombosed external haemorrhoids that have not resolved with conservative care. See a colorectal surgeon.
