Proctofoam HC is a topical medication consisting of two drugs; pramoxine, an anesthetic; and hydrocortisone, a corticosteroid.

Proctofoam HC is used in the rectal area for treatment of itching, swelling, and discomfort caused by hemorrhoids or other problems associated in the rectal area, such as anal fissures. Hemorrhoids are swollen anal veins usually caused by straining too hard when using the bathroom and often times are painful. An anal fissure is a small tear in the thin moist tissue that lines the anus and are usually caused by passing hard or large stools, causing pain and bleeding.

Proctofoam HC (pramoxine/hydrocortisone) is effective at treating itching and other symptoms of rectal conditions because the anesthetic temporarily numbs the area while the corticosteroid reduces redness, itching, and swelling.
