Ruticool Cream is a combination of five medicines: Lidocaine, Hydrocortisone, Phenylephrine, Zinc Oxide, and Calcium Dobesilate. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic which works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain thereby decreasing the sensation of pain. Hydrocortisone is a steroid which reduces redness, itching, and swelling due to piles/hemorrhoids. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that shrinks the swollen blood vessels to further relieve itching and irritation caused by piles/hemorrhoids. Zinc Oxide has astringent and antiseptic action. Calcium Dobesilate is a vasoprotective medicine which works on the walls of the small blood vessels and reduces their leakage and fragility. It also improves blood flow by decreasing viscosity/thickness of blood, thereby relieving inflammation (redness and swelling) in piles/hemorrhoids and promoting healing.
