Haemorrhoids and Piles Treatments

To complete the consultation, you’ll need details about your specific haemorrhoid symptoms, any previous and current medications, any diagnoses, and other details of your medical history.

Once you submit the consultation questionnaire, you can then select your preferred haemorrhoid treatment option and complete the purchase. A prescriber will review your consultation responses after the order is received, and we will follow up with you if they require further information.

Once the prescriber has confirmed the appropriate treatment, the order will be packaged and delivered using your preferred delivery option.

Please note the final prescription decision rests with the prescriber.

If you experience recurring or chronic haemorrhoid symptoms, you should complete a new Haemorrhoids & Piles consultation for each new treatment request.

This also ensures we adhere to the guidelines set by the GPhC, and can make any necessary changes to your treatment plan.
