HAMETUM suppositories contain a herbal extract from the leaves of Hamamelis virginiana (Virgin witch hazel) and can be used for initial hemorrhoidal symptoms. Witch hazel has a wound-healing and anti-inflammatory effect and thus relieves itching and burning. Due to the good tolerability, the suppositories are also suitable for long-term use.

How do drug ingredients work?
.
.
The ingredients are derived from the witch hazel plant and work as a natural mixture. Information about the plant itself:
- Appearance: shrub or small tree about 3 meters tall, whose bright yellow, narrow-leaved flowers remain on the shrub at the same time as the fruit; the leaves can easily be mistaken for those of hazel.
- Presence: North America
- Main constituents: tannins
- Plant parts and preparations used: mainly extracts and tinctures of leaves, bark and twigs. Tannins react with proteins in the skin (mucosa). They seal small wounds by forming a thin protective layer on the surface and inhibit inflammation and minor bleeding.
