However, due to various negative circumstances, venous blood stagnates in the nodes, blood clots appear and inflammatory processes begin. This is hemorrhoids. It is divided into external, internal and combined. The disease can occur acutely or chronically.
The acute form is recognized by the formation of blood clots and inflammation.
In the chronic course, doctors distinguish four stages. Their key features are listed below:
- Slight discharge of scarlet blood.
- Prolapse of hemorrhoids due to pushing, then the nodes retract inward on their own.
- Nodes fall out under load and require only manual repositioning.
- The muscles of the anus weaken so much that the nodes can fall out at any time. Often their reduction is no longer possible.

Drugs during pregnancy
Waiting for a baby can result in prolapse of hemorrhoids for a woman. The most common reasons:
- increased blood volume and increased load on blood vessels;
- pressure from the growing uterus on all internal organs, including the intestinal tract (this causes constipation);
- strong efforts during childbirth.
Pills for hemorrhoids during pregnancy should be taken very carefully!
Drug therapy is justified only in the acute phase of the disease.
Many medications are contraindicated for pregnant women. For example, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics and other drugs. Therefore, treatment of pathology in expectant and nursing mothers is carried out with increased attention to their condition and caution. Doctors in such situations prescribe mainly topical drugs.
However, the previously mentioned Detralex can be used during pregnancy (but not during lactation).
Semenov I.A. proctologist: “Pills for hemorrhoids are part of a systemic treatment strategy for patients with chronic and acute forms of the disease. Prescribing medications is the prerogative of the attending physician, who individually selects an effective treatment regimen. Treatment tactics depend on the patient’s condition and the stage of development of the pathology. The main task of medications is to eliminate symptoms and prevent possible complications. In addition, pharmacotherapy is aimed at eliminating inflammation, improving blood circulation and stopping bleeding. Medications are also indicated before and after surgical procedures.
Comprehensive treatment of hemorrhoids always includes taking phlebotropic drugs. In Russia, the domestic drug Venarus and the French drugs Phlebodia and Detralex are often prescribed.
For severe inflammation, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Xefocam, Diclofenac and others) are indicated. In the acute course of the disease, enzyme preparations and prebiotics are recommended (Mezim, Panzinorm, Creon, Hilak Forte). Medications should normalize the proper functioning of the digestive tract.
In addition to medications, complex treatment should include anti-inflammatory ointments, gels and creams.”
It is obvious that this insidious disease cannot yet be treated with any one medicine. There are no drugs that solve all problems at once. Therapy for this disease is always complex and sometimes quite complicated.
The best pills for hemorrhoids are drugs that will be prescribed by a proctologist individually, having tests and examination results!
The main thing is to contact a specialist at the first suspicion of the development of the disease, get examined and complete a full course of treatment. In this case, the disease will not have a single chance to develop into its most unpleasant forms. And recovery will be quick and effective.

Venarus is a Russian analogue of Detralex, which is expensive
- Igorek
Well, it will have a weak effect. Detralex is a powerful drug, although expensive, I agree.
- Yaroslav
Tell me, you prescribed Senna for a laxative effect on constipation and hemorrhoids. I read that it is very harmful to the body. Is this true and how best to use it?
- Irina Anatolyevna
Yaroslav, yes it’s true! The action is very powerful and addictive. Then the functioning of the intestines is simply disrupted and the drug is required. It is used for a quick single laxative effect in a specific case.
- Irina Anatolyevna
Yuri, if a hemorrhoid constantly falls out, then no medications or drugs will help. Requires surgery.

Reviews of Detralex
Anastasia. 40 years.
I suffered for many years in search of an effective remedy for hemorrhoids, until I came across the drug “Detralex”. It is worth noting right away that from the first days of its use, mild headaches arose, but this was noted in the side effects in the instructions and, since they were not painful, I haven’t finished stopping taking it. Already from the first days of taking this medicine, an improvement in the condition was noticed, namely, hemorrhoids decreased, pain and itching subsided. The disadvantage of the drug is its cost, but the resulting effect is worth the money.
Peter. 47 years old.
In recent years, he noticed inflammation of the hemorrhoidal node, bleeding and terrible pain in the anal area began. After going to the doctor, the choice arose between surgical and conservative treatment. After much thought, I leaned towards the latter, since I always believed that surgery was always a big risk. Of all the drugs, I settled on Detralex and after a couple of weeks I realized that I had made the right decision. The pain decreased, the bleeding became significantly less, and then completely disappeared. Despite the fact that the cost of this drug cannot be called small, it is completely justified. Now I feel just great and I recommend everyone, if a dilemma arises in choosing a drug, to leave your choice on Detralex

Overview of types of drugs
If the question of which pills to take is being decided, highly specialized drugs that perform one main function are considered. Such funds can be divided into several groups, which we will consider below.
Laxatives
Considering that one of the key factors contributing to the formation of pathology on the anal ring and in the rectum is constipation, it is recommended to take medications that relax the intestinal walls. Similar remedies work in different ways, but any option from this group is used in combination when treating hemorrhoids. In case of bleeding and pain during an exacerbation, tablets with this property do not give the desired effect. Hemorrhoids are often prevented using laxatives. A medicine of this purpose helps to facilitate the passage of feces through the rectum, due to which the healing of pathological nodes occurs faster. According to the principle of action, the laxatives and suppositories under consideration are similar, only the latter have a local effect, while tablets affect the entire digestive tract.
Medication "Pylex"
This is a multicomponent medicinal product, the composition of which includes powdered substances in the form of resinous compounds, crushed leaves of azadirachta and mumiyo, as well as extracts of some plants - barberry, emblica officinalis, cassia, bauhinia, iron mesua, terminalia chebula and belerica.
Thanks to such a rich composition, the use of this product helps to reduce blood stagnation, normalize its circulation, relieve swelling and inflammation, heal wounds and cracks in the rectum, and increase vascular tone.
The drug "Pileks" is distinguished by the fact that it gives a slight laxative effect, which helps to facilitate the process of defecation, since constipation most often becomes a provoking factor in the development of hemorrhoids.
This medicine can be used for varicose veins of the intestine, rectal fissures and inflammation of the colon.
Contraindications to the use of the medication:
- Childhood.
- Ulcerative lesions of the digestive system.
- Pregnancy and lactation.
- Thrombosis of hemorrhoids.
- Intolerance.
Taking the drug can sometimes be accompanied by allergic reactions and dyspepsia.
What are hemorrhoids?
Hemorrhoids are a proctological disease caused by pathological growth, expansion and tortuosity of the hemorrhoidal veins of the rectum. Clinically manifested as heaviness, pain, discomfort or itching in the anal area. Alcohol, hot spices, and excessive physical activity can provoke symptoms.
Hemorrhoids are also characterized by the appearance of bloody impurities in the stool. As a rule, the blood is scarlet in color, but it can also be dark. According to statistics, about 1/5 of the world's population suffers from this problem and more than 2/3 have ever experienced symptoms characteristic of hemorrhoids.
Hemorrhoidal bleeding is associated with the act of defecation. Congestion in the venous apparatus of the rectum leads to blood filling and the formation of nodes. With a long course of the disease, the venous wall begins to thin and rupture. In this case, the bleeding is not intense. As a rule, bloody stains are found on toilet paper or underwear. Regular blood loss, even in small amounts, can provoke the development of iron deficiency anemia.
