How Sucral Ano Cream Works

Sucral Ano Cream is a combination of three drugs: Lidocaine, Metronidazole and Sucralfate.

Metronidazole belongs to the class of antibiotics that prevent bacterial infection caused by the exposed skin surface of the anus. Sucralfate belongs to the class of protectants that form a protective layer over the affected area of skin, thereby preventing pain, burning sensation and inflammation in the anus. Thus, together, Sucral Ano Cream promotes the healing of fissures, helps in forming new healthy skin and minimises infection and pain around the anal canal.
