Comment:
I also use for anal itching. It really does reduce the swelling associated with hemorrhoids.

Comment:
I had no idea that Preparation H could cause me to lose so much energy and cause a bit of a mental lapse ; and I only took it for a couple of days. It did get rid of the hemorrhoid but the side effects were so bad to where as I would never recommend this product to anyone. It is the enemy; especially if you have any type of viruses or immune deficiencies.

It caused a very serious itchy rash one year ago (Aug 2011) and has not gone away one year later. I would not recommend it to anyone.
