DESCRIPTION
Each suppository for rectal administration contains 25 mg
hydrocortisone acetate USP in a
hydrogenated cocoglyceride base. Hydrocortisone acetate is a

In normal subjects, about 26 percent of hydrocortisone acetate is
absorbed when the hydrocortisone

abraded or inflamed surfaces.
Topical steroids are primarily effective because of their
anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and
vasoconstrictive action.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
For use in inflamed hemorrhoids, post irradiation (factitial)
proctitis, as an adjunct in the treatment of
chronic ulcerative colitis, cryptitis, other inflammatory conditions
of the anorectum, and pruritus ani.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Hydrocortisone acetate suppositories are contraindicated in those
patients with a history of
hypersensitivity to any of the components.

If irritation develops, the product should be discontinued and
