Abstract |
A new no-touch aqueous spray has been developed for the topical treatment of pruritus ani. It contains 0.2% hydrocortisone and 1.0% lignocaine hydrochloride, and has been shown in studies involving 83 patients to constitute a most convenient and clinically effective preparation for alleviating the symptoms of this distressing chronic condition.
