About Xyralid® Suppositories
Xyralid® Suppositories are an FDA and Health Canada-OTC monograph compliant, fast-acting and powerful hemorrhoid suppository product. They contain the active ingredients cocoa butter and phenylephrine which provides fast relief for the pain and symptoms caused by hemorrhoids.
Hemorrhoids, also called “piles,” are swollen and inflamed veins in the anus and lower rectum. Hemorrhoids may result from straining during bowel movements or from the increased pressure on these veins during pregnancy, among other causes. Hemorrhoids may be located inside the rectum (internal hemorrhoids) or they may develop under the skin around the anus (external hemorrhoids). There are over 1.2 million hemorrhoid sufferers in Canada, making it a very large market1.
