My hemmoroids are large and painful after a colonoscopy and this drug greatly helps in reducing the soreness and irritation. It seems to help in them returning to their normal size and place which is inside.

My doctor prescribed Calmol 4 for me prior to surgery. It caused constipation and had little effect on my itching and pain. I have not read anywhere that it causes constipation, but that is my experience. OTC medication was working much better than this.

This was a very strange experience. Almost two days of taking CalMol 4 I experienced swelling of the tongue, difficulty breathing, tightness of chest. All doctors who I spoke to said it was not the suppositories. But it was the only thing I took differently. No strange foods, no meds, nothing that would have cause an allergic reaction. I was the CalMol and as soon as I stopped using it, the symptoms faded. Be careful and listen to your body, not the doctors. They really don't understand the full scope of side effects and assume everyone will react the same to the meds they recommend.Read More Read Less

Seemed to have side effects that were not mentioned on the package nor could I find info online. Called the company. The rep who returned the call was rude, argumentative, and laughed. He denied that the effects I experienced could happen. I hung up. I would not recommend this product at all.
