So far it has helped alot. I am 75. I will see what happens when I stop using them. I am also drinking alot of water. It is hard to stay on this regiment but I know its helping and I do have to have a colonoscopy! Not looking forward to that!

Comment:
Didnt get rid of the pain or burning at all. Didnt seem to effect it at all. (Internal hemorrhoid is what Dr is thinking it was). I was hoping it would numb it for a hit to get relief, but it did nothing... been on it for a week.

Comment:
shrank my hemorrhoids but didn't eliminate them. Hemorrhoids returned shortly after finishing the course of medication. Expensive. Helps to warm the suppositories in your hand before inserting.

Comment:
I was skeptical, but after this condition - both mild and not-so-mild - for several years....I am, pun intended, relieved. Today is my last day and I do wonder about the long-term efficacy.
