From the Manufacturer

Preparation H suppositories supply soothing relief from the internal swelling, burning, itching, and discomfort associated with hemorrhoids. While most people likely don’t want to discuss hemorrhoids, it’s estimated that 75% of Americans will experience hemorrhoid symptoms at some point in their lives. Preparation H suppositories soothe these painful and frustrating symptoms by temporarily relieving burning while shrinking hemorrhoidal tissue, temporarily providing a coating of relief for anorectal discomforts, and protecting the inflamed, irritated anorectal surface to help make bowel movements less painful. Preparation H even offers a nighttime reprieve from suffering, allowing users to sleep better. Fortunately, hemorrhoids are rarely a serious health condition, but they are uncomfortable and bothersome, which is why Preparation H strives to give people the relief they need to enjoy everyday activities.
