What is Rectinol Ointment 50g?

Rectinol Ointment 50g is a fast-acting topical ointment that provides temporary relief from the pain, itching, and discomfort associated with haemorrhoids (piles), anal fissures, and pruritus ani. The dual-action formula combines cinchocaine hydrochloride — a local anaesthetic — with zinc oxide to numb pain and form a protective barrier on irritated tissue.

Key benefits

  • Fast pain relief — cinchocaine hydrochloride numbs the area within minutes.
  • Reduces itching — soothes the discomfort of pruritus ani and irritated tissue.
  • Protective barrier — zinc oxide coats and protects sore, broken skin.
  • Discreet 50g tube — compact and easy to apply at home.
  • Trusted Australian formula — a long-standing pharmacy first-line option for haemorrhoid relief.

Active ingredients

  • Cinchocaine Hydrochloride 5mg — local anaesthetic for pain relief.
  • Zinc Oxide 200mg — protective barrier and mild astringent.

How to use

Gently clean the affected area with warm water and pat dry. Apply a small amount of Rectinol Ointment to the external area or use the applicator nozzle for internal application. Use 2-3 times daily, especially after bowel movements and at bedtime. Wash hands thoroughly after application.

Warnings and precautions

  • For external and rectal use only. Do not use in eyes or mouth.
  • Discontinue use and consult a doctor if rectal bleeding occurs or symptoms persist beyond 7 days.
  • Not recommended for children under 12 without medical advice.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use.

Who should use Rectinol?

Rectinol Ointment is for adults seeking temporary relief from the pain, itching and swelling of haemorrhoids (piles) and minor anorectal discomfort. Use after a bowel movement and at night; do not use for longer than 7 days without medical advice, and stop and see a doctor if there is bleeding.

Frequently asked questions

What is Rectinol Ointment used for?

Rectinol Ointment is used for the temporary relief of pain, itching, and discomfort associated with haemorrhoids (piles), anal fissures, and pruritus ani (anal itching). The cinchocaine numbs the area while zinc oxide protects irritated tissue.

How quickly does Rectinol Ointment work?

The cinchocaine local anaesthetic typically provides noticeable pain relief within 5-10 minutes of application. The protective effect of zinc oxide continues throughout the day.

Can Rectinol Ointment be used internally?

Yes - the ointment comes with an applicator nozzle designed for internal application of haemorrhoids. Insert the nozzle gently and apply a small amount. For external haemorrhoids, apply directly to the affected area.

How long should I use Rectinol Ointment?

Use Rectinol Ointment for short-term symptomatic relief, typically up to 7 days. If symptoms persist, worsen, or if rectal bleeding occurs, stop using and consult a doctor.

How does Rectinol work?

Rectinol contains cinchocaine, a local anaesthetic that numbs pain, and zinc oxide, which soothes and protects irritated skin — together easing the itching, burning and swelling of haemorrhoids.

How long does Rectinol take to work?

The local anaesthetic gives relatively fast symptom relief. Apply up to three times a day, preferably after a bowel movement. See a doctor if symptoms do not improve within 7 days.

Does Rectinol shrink haemorrhoids?

It relieves symptoms (pain, itch and swelling) and protects the skin, but it is not a cure. Persistent, large or bleeding haemorrhoids should be assessed by a doctor.

What are the active ingredients in Rectinol?

Cinchocaine hydrochloride (a local anaesthetic) and zinc oxide (a soothing skin protectant).

How do I apply Rectinol?

Apply to the affected area up to three times daily, ideally after a bowel movement. Do not use for longer than 7 days without medical advice.
