We compare objectively
A large assortment of drugs for hemorrhoids in pharmacies makes people constantly doubt the effectiveness of the chosen remedy and try other drugs, hoping for healing. Listening to the advice of pharmacy staff who recommend products in other dosage forms, the buyer is not always able to purchase a full-fledged analogue at an equally affordable price.
To avoid getting into trouble, it is important to know the following points:
- Internal hemorrhoids, which is the main indication for the use of Natalsid, cannot be cured with hemorrhoid ointments, since the depth of their penetration does not correspond to suppositories.
- It will not be possible to find a similar cream, since the ideal dosage form for using sodium alginate is suppositories.
- In terms of relieving inflammation, Natalsid is not inferior to any tablet; there is no point in taking NSAIDs at the same time as using suppositories.
No matter how good drugs with a complex composition are, very often their main anti-inflammatory component is a hormone from the group of corticosteroids - a highly allergic substance that can provoke side effects. Therefore, only drugs with a natural base can be considered analogues of Natalsid, and there are not so many of them:
- Sea buckthorn suppositories are a good herbal preparation with excellent anti-inflammatory and regenerating activity, created on the basis of oil from sea buckthorn fruits. Its disadvantages are the ability to leave stains on bedding and underwear, lack of an immunostimulating effect, and weak analgesic effect.
- Relief suppositories are the very first dosage form from the Relief line and contain shark liver oil and phenylephrine. The oil does work similarly to sodium alginate, however, the hemostatic effect of phenylephrine is based on its vasoconstrictor effect
The drug is prescribed with caution to pregnant, lactating, and hypertensive patients, which indicates that it is less safe compared to Natalsid. A full-fledged analogue of Natalsid in composition is Alginatol suppositories, intended for use in children.
So, the natural composition of the suppositories has a complex effect, effectively eliminating bleeding, itching, pain, sphincter spasm, as a result of which Natalsid suppositories for hemorrhoids can be safely considered an effective drug used independently or as part of complex therapy for this disease.
Natalsid or Relief – which to choose?
Natalsid or Relief – which is better? Two drugs for the treatment of one disease contain different active components and have almost the same effect. How to choose the most suitable remedy, which one will alleviate the patient’s condition faster?
Both drugs are quite effective and do an excellent job of treating the main symptoms of hemorrhoids, so many patients often choose a remedy based on their personal preferences. However, when choosing suppositories, it should be remembered that Natalsid is recommended for use by pregnant women at any stage, and Relief can cause uterine tone, so its use is allowed only with great caution and in special cases. The drug Natalsid is safer due to its natural ingredients and has more positive reviews.
Treatment of the disease with conservative methods most often relieves symptoms, but does not eliminate the cause of the disease. Therefore, complex treatment helps to obtain the fastest results. In addition to topical medications, laxatives are prescribed; homeopathic medications and traditional medicine recipes are often used.
If healing is impossible without surgery, surgery to remove hemorrhoids is prescribed.
In any case, treatment of hemorrhoids should occur under the supervision of a proctologist. It should be remembered that only a specialist can choose the right medicine and choose effective therapy!
Composition of the drug
The main component of the product is sodium alginate, which is contained in each suppository in a volume of 250 mg. In addition to its composition outlined below, this substance promotes the appearance of immunoglobulin A, which strengthens the lining of the mucous gland and makes it more resistant to fighting microbes. Sodium alginate, in turn, requires the presence of the following substances:
- Hyaluronic acid. Thanks to the presence of this substance, the process of cell division is regulated, which is the basis for the wound-healing properties of the drug Natalsid.
- Alginic acid. It has an analgesic effect, enveloping the walls of the intestines and hemorrhoidal veins. The principle of action of this substance is to swell and transform into a light gel substance, which, in turn, is a consequence of the absorption of fluid from the rectum.
- A salt formed by the chemical reaction of alginic acid and sodium. Thanks to this connection, stool is normalized.
- Carboxyl groups. These substances are responsible for stopping bleeding, pain relief and wound healing. Thanks to carboxyl groups, inflammation decreases after just a week of using the product, gradually disappearing.
Thus, Natalsid contains the substance sodium alginate, which, due to its composition, helps not only get rid of hemorrhoids, but also have a beneficial effect on the body as a whole.
Comparison
Both medications are intended for the treatment of hemorrhoids and anal fissures . They have almost the same effect: anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, vasoconstrictor. They promote the healing of wounds and cracks on the surface of the anus. The first remedy also helps eliminate swelling and itching.
The active ingredients and the form of release of medications are different - the first remedy contains phenylephrine and oils, is available in the form of rectal suppositories, ointments and creams, which allows you to choose the most suitable type of treatment. The second drug is available only in the form of rectal suppositories and contains the natural substance sodium alginate.
If we compare the contraindications of the drugs, then the first of them has many more. It cannot be used for certain blood diseases, intolerance to components and for people under the age of 12 years. And “Natalsid” cannot be used only if the components are intolerant and under the age of 14 years. However, this product is allowed to be used by pregnant and lactating women, since sodium alginate does not have a negative effect on the body of the mother and child.
The second medication can also be used during pregnancy, but with great caution and according to strict indications, so as not to harm the expectant mother and fetus.
Both products are available without a prescription and can be purchased freely at pharmacies. However, you should not use the products without consulting a doctor, otherwise complications and side effects may occur.
Rules for using candles
The effectiveness of any candles depends on how correctly they are used. The instructions for using the drug under discussion are quite simple - suppositories must be inserted into the anus twice a day. The nuances of the manipulation are as follows:
- Before using the medicine, it is necessary to carry out hygiene procedures, wash your hands thoroughly with soap, and ensure that your nails are cut short and not scratched.
- It is more convenient to place any candles while lying on your side. This prevents the drug from being pushed back out.
- It is necessary to remove the outer shell of the suppository immediately before use, since the suppository may melt under the influence of warm air, and its administration will become difficult.
- To place the suppository correctly, you need to insert it into the anus and continue pressing until the sphincter resistance disappears.
- After administering the drug, it is advisable to remain in a horizontal position for half an hour, lying on your stomach. For external hemorrhoids, it is permissible to lie on your back.
If the symptoms of hemorrhoids are particularly pronounced and create discomfort, it is permissible to use an increased dose of the drug. For adults and children over 14 years of age, the maximum number of suppositories per day is 4 pcs. Although the description of the drug does not contain information about a possible overdose, the need to exceed the standard dose is determined by the doctor, who must prescribe how many times to use the suppositories and how long to continue treatment.
In order for Natalsid to be as effective as possible for hemorrhoids, it is worth undergoing a full course of treatment, which can last up to 14 days, despite the earlier extinction of symptoms. Reviews from patients say that noticeable relief occurs after using the first suppository, and clinical studies confirm the reality of this fact. Even with the external form of the disease, it is not necessary to use ointment in addition to suppositories.
Natalsid suppositories during pregnancy and breastfeeding
Since Natalsid suppositories are made exclusively from natural ingredients, they have very few side effects. They can be used even during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Many pregnant women develop hemorrhoids; this happens because the growing uterus puts pressure on the intestine with congestion. The method of application is no different from ordinary people. Pregnant and nursing mothers should also wash their hands, empty their bowels and gently insert it into the anus twice a day, remaining in this position for half an hour.
If twice-daily treatment does not help get rid of hemorrhoids, then the doctor can increase the dosage, but it should be increased gradually - first insert three suppositories per day, then four.
Pregnant women note that this medicine is effective, because even after the introduction of the first suppository, good relief is noticed, the bleeding stops and the pain goes away.
An important advantage of the drug is that it can be used during breastfeeding. The medicine is not able to pass into breast milk, so it will not harm the baby.
The drug is completely safe, so it is widely used to treat hemorrhoids, anal fissures and other unpleasant symptoms.
Instructions for use
Instructions for use can be found in the box with the drug. The use of Natalsid can be divided into the following steps:
It is important that defecation occurs at the time of insertion of the suppository. If spontaneous bowel movement does not occur, it is recommended to use an enema. Before inserting the suppository, you need to moisten the anus with warm water and soapy water. The suppository should be wetted with water. Inserting the suppository with your finger in any position convenient for the patient
In this case, the finger should be clean and the fingernail should be cut short so as not to damage the mucous membrane. You need to insert the suppository into the rectum until it is behind the anal sphincter. This can be easily checked - your finger will no longer feel resistance to inserting the candle. After inserting the suppository through the anal sphincter, pull your finger out of the anus.
The above sequence of actions should be repeated twice a day for a sufficient period of time for the patient - usually about two weeks. If there is no positive effect from the action of the suppositories, you should consult a doctor. As a rule, in such cases the number of daily administrations increases to four times.
Application diagram
The dosage and duration of use of the drug is determined by the doctor, taking into account the severity of the patient’s condition.
Suppositories Natalsid and Relief are administered rectally after preliminary hygiene procedures and bowel cleansing (during bowel movements or after an enema).
Relief ointment is applied in a thin layer to the affected area outside or inside the anus.
Hemorrhoids during pregnancy
It is the latter reason for the appearance of hemorrhoids that will be discussed in this article. It is believed that during pregnancy there is a high risk of developing pathology of hemorrhoidal veins of the anus. Guided by practical observations, many doctors claim that women who have given birth suffer from this disease many times more often than those who have not given birth.
Causes of hemorrhoids in expectant mothers:
- the pathological process develops due to excessive pressure of the enlarged uterus and child on the woman’s pelvis;
- Pregnant women often suffer from constant constipation, which causes severe straining and blood flow to the anus;
- Another factor influencing the development of hemorrhoids is age. According to statistics, girls are much less susceptible to the disease than representatives who have crossed the 30-year-old threshold.
- The number of births is also of great importance: the more there are, the higher the risk of such an unpleasant disease.
However, one should not assume that the occurrence of this pathology is a mandatory “scenario” for every pregnancy. However, if you notice some of the above symptoms of this disease, you should immediately go to the doctor to confirm or refute the diagnosis, determine the extent of the disease, and prescribe safe treatment. You should not hesitate to visit a doctor also because some more terrible diseases can manifest symptoms similar to hemorrhoids (tumors of the anus, rectal prolapse, condylomas of the perianal area). To exclude such diagnoses, you should undergo a thorough diagnosis at a medical center under the supervision of your attending physician.
Natalsid for children
Unfortunately, children are also not immune from diseases such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures or rectal diseases. They can also be prescribed Natalsid suppositories as part of complex therapy. The medicine is also used to stop bleeding or rectal prolapse.
For children, suppositories should be administered by adults after spontaneous bowel movements or with the help of an enema. The child should rinse the anus; there is no need to wipe it with a towel, since moisture, on the contrary, will allow the candle to be easily inserted into the anus. Before inserting a candle into the child's anus, the index finger must be washed and the nail trimmed short. The suppository should be advanced until the finger no longer feels resistance.
The dosage should be prescribed exclusively by a pediatrician, basically it looks like this:
- Children under one year of age are prescribed one suppository per day;
- from one to four years, suppositories are administered twice a day;
- from four to fourteen years, 2-3 suppositories per day.
In general, the duration of treatment is from one to two weeks.
The basis of efficiency
Unlike most modern drugs for hemorrhoids, which contain different types of components, as well as excipients to stabilize the dosage form, the composition of Natalsid includes only three substances:
- Sodium alginate (dose 250 mg).
- Witepsol.
- Supposir.
The last two components are synthetic fats used together to ensure the suppositories’ resistance to external factors, as well as to ensure uniform distribution of the active substance throughout the entire volume of the suppository. Suppositories are produced in contour plastic cells, packed in a cardboard box (can be seen in the photo) of 10 pcs., have a torpedo shape, light gray color with a beige tint:
Using Natalsid suppositories for hemorrhoids, the patient feels a rapid pain-relieving effect, notices the elimination of inflammation, and the cessation of bleeding. The effects are due to the structural components of sodium alginate:
- The wound healing effect is based on the ability of the natural form of hyaluronic acid to stimulate the division and growth of normal cells of the intestinal epithelial tissue, sphincter, and anal mucosa.
- Alginic acid swells under the influence of liquid, forming a gel-like film on the inflamed area of the rectum, as well as on the surface of inflamed hemorrhoidal veins. As a result, pain is eliminated. Reacting with sodium, the acid forms a special salt that can normalize stool after eliminating spasm of the anal sphincter.
- Carboxyl groups in the structure of the alginate polymer formula reduce the time of fibrin clot formation, thereby eliminating even active bleeding of postoperative origin.
It has been scientifically proven that sodium alginate is capable of increasing local immunity of the mucous membranes by activating the production of immunoglobulins A. This ability causes an increase in the resistance of mucosal cells to many strains of bacteria, and as a result, relapses of inflammation become more rare.
The natural origin of the product is the key to low allergy. Individual sensitivity to Natalsid occurs extremely rarely, and manifests itself only as a local reaction (rash, itching, redness). Due to the large size of the alginate formula, it is not absorbed into the blood at all, which means no side effects can occur.
Candles cost from 240 to 310 rubles in Russian pharmacies. The affordable price of Natalsid is due to the fact that the main component of the drug is relatively cheap. The radar for its extraction is the leaves of kelp, the most common type of brown seaweed.
Natalsid
This is the development of the Russian pharmacological company OJSC Nizhpharm - rectal suppositories for the treatment of hemorrhoids. The active substance of the drug, sodium alginate, is extracted by processing algae of marine origin.
The drug is distinguished among analogues as having high results in the treatment of inflammation, stopping bleeding and is characterized by high regenerative characteristics. Used to treat patients with inflammation or problems in the perianal area.
Available in the form of candles in the shape of a gray torpedo. This form provides the closest access to the inflammatory focus.
Compound
The main substance is sodium alginate . It belongs to the polysaccharides and is obtained from seaweed. Consists of two components. Alginic acid adsorbs water. At the site of application, it swells and becomes gel-like and surrounds the inflamed areas - bumps. The level of pain decreases, bowel function normalizes. The second is that hyaluronic acid activates the regeneration of damaged areas of the rectum.
Sodium alginate is involved in the production of immunoglobulin, improves local immunity and resistance to pathogenic environments. In addition to the analgesic and hemostatic effect, suppositories remove the inflammatory process.
Indications for use
Rectal suppositories are used for problems in the perianal area. Such pathologies include:
- Varicose veins and anal vein nodes;
- Inflammation, cracks, erosion;
- Complications after surgery;
- Pain during bowel movements;
- Colitis, dermatitis in the anal area.
Contraindications
The drug is well tolerated due to its natural origin. The only thing is an allergy to the components and age less than 14 years.
Side effects
Candles can cause an allergic reaction.
Instructions for use
You need to use candles according to the instructions described for Relief candles only up to 2 times a day for a week. If necessary, the quantity can be increased to 4.
The average price is 350 rubles.
Contraindications for use and side effects
Natalsid consists of natural ingredients, so there are minimal contraindications. They consist of individual intolerance and the possibility of allergic reactions. In addition, it is not advisable to use candles for children under 14 years of age. During pregnancy, the use of the drug is absolutely safe. An exception may be the period of breastfeeding, since all foods and medications consumed by the nursing mother enter the milk. It is imperative to consult a doctor to determine the advisability of taking the drug, which is also passed on to the child.
Side effects occur extremely rarely and depend on individual intolerance to the components. In such a case, allergic reactions may occur in the form of itching, rashes, and hives. In this case, you need to stop using it further and contact a specialist. Side effects include:
- Allergy (rare)
- Peeling of the skin.
- Itching.
There are some contraindications to the use of the product:
- Natalsid should not be used in children under 14 years of age (due to the lack of testing of the drug on its effect on younger patients).
- Personal sensitivity to components (including complete intolerance).
Action
A drug for local use with a pronounced anti-inflammatory and hemostatic (hemostatic) effect, and has reparative (wound-healing) activity. Natalsid reduces bleeding, relieves inflammation and accelerates the regeneration of damaged tissue. The inflammatory process decreases significantly after 6-8 days of regular use of the product, and after 2 weeks it completely stops.

According to reviews from many women, rectal suppositories are excellent for any inflammation of the rectum, for example, colitis or proctitis. The course of treatment is prescribed by the doctor after a thorough examination, but usually it does not exceed 2 weeks. As for the dosage, it may vary depending on the extent and severity of the disease. In most cases, 1 rectal suppository is prescribed 2 times a day for internal administration into the anus.
The candle contains 250 mg of active substance, which has the following therapeutic effect:
- increased division of healthy colon cells. This promotes rapid regeneration of damaged mucosa;
- reduction of sphincter spasm, improvement of stool;
- pain relief;
- increasing the immunity of the colon mucosa, due to which there is excellent resistance to the influence of pathogens;
- relieving inflammation in the anal area.
Having studied the reviews of women who have tried the effect of Natalsid rectal suppositories, we can confidently say that there is no safer, more effective and reliable means for treating varicose veins during pregnancy.
Analogs
Due to its plant origin, the effectiveness of Natalsid may be inferior to synthetic analogues. If it is impossible to achieve the desired result or you do not want to use candles based on brown algae, it is recommended to purchase a substitute for the corresponding medication.
Popular analogues:
- Relief. A synthetic medicine that is widely used in the treatment of hemorrhoids. Relief costs about the same. The mechanism of action of the drug and the features of its use differ.
- Belladonna extract in the form of rectal suppositories. A natural medicine that helps stabilize the pathological process in the anal area and rectum. The medicine additionally affects the prostate gland, providing a wider range of indications.
- Betiol. A combined product based on belladonna and ichthyol extract. The drug is almost half the price and has a good therapeutic effect. The medication is popular among doctors and patients.
- Olestesin. The mechanism of action is similar to Natalsid. The price differs. An analogue of the described drug is half the price, however, the effectiveness is also lower.
- Ultraproct. A special feature of the corresponding product is the presence of two dosage forms - rectal suppositories and ointment for external use. Due to the chemical composition, suppositories can be used only once a day. This fact makes the medicine convenient for patients.
The choice of any of these analogues should be made after consulting a doctor. Otherwise, the risk of developing serious complications and worsening the course of a particular disease increases.
When to use
The drug Natalsid is actively used to treat any inflammatory diseases of the large intestine and rectum. Indications for use: It is recommended to use the drug:
- In case of damage to the anal mucosa (for example, with an anal fissure).
- For chronic hemorrhoids, with a tendency to bleed.
- For inflammatory diseases of the anus or rectum.
- After operations on different parts of the large intestine.
- For lesions of the intestinal mucosa of bacterial etiology, causing internal bleeding (salmonellosis, dysentery).
The proven safety of the product allows it to be used before childbirth, when increased pressure on the inferior vena cava causes the appearance of hemorrhoids or an exacerbation of an existing problem. The active ingredients work only locally, are not absorbed into the systemic bloodstream, and therefore cannot affect the condition of the unborn baby or provoke the premature onset of labor.
Rectal suppositories Natalsid can be used for children. The main condition is that the child’s prescription must be made by a specialist, and all treatment must take place under his supervision.
Precautionary measures are necessary since the effectiveness and safety of the drug form for children has not been clinically proven.
Indications for use do not mention the possibility of using the suppositories discussed for the treatment of prostatitis. Considering the mechanism of pharmacological action, the use of Natalsid for this pathology is not advisable. However, andrologists prescribe the drug for the treatment of particularly painful cases of prostate inflammation.
Composition and effects
Rectal suppositories Natalsid are a monocomponent medicine. The main active ingredient of suppositories is sodium alginate. This compound is extracted from brown algae. Natalsid additionally uses base fats and oils to give the candles the appropriate shape.
Sodium alginate is a bioactive substance that has several important effects for patients. When used externally, it is possible to simultaneously achieve the following goals:
- Stopping bleeding or reducing its intensity. The use of Natalsid for large blood losses is unjustified. The medication does not guarantee the achievement of reliable hemostasis when the integrity of large-caliber vessels is compromised.
- Reducing the severity of local inflammation. This effect allows you to use the described suppositories for hemorrhoids, proctitis and other diseases of the rectum.
- Acceleration of regenerative processes. Natalsid for hemorrhoids, proctitis or anal fissure helps to normalize the healing of the wound surface. Stimulation of epithelial cell division occurs with closure of the affected area.
The simple composition and good effectiveness of Natalsid make the drug popular and in demand in the pharmaceutical market.
Release form and dosage
Keep away from children.
The administration of rectal suppositories is carried out in a natural environment for the patient, after all necessary hygienic procedures and independent bowel movements. If the reflex activity of the intestinal tract is impaired, an enema may be required. Hygiene before inserting the suppository is done using water and soap.
Fingernails are cut short, and it is possible to use disinfectants aimed at eliminating the risk of bacterial infection. Disposable sterile gloves may be used. After washing the anal area, the suppository is removed from the package; it is recommended to moisten it to facilitate insertion.
The introduction of the suppository is performed in a comfortable position, with the drug being completely introduced into the anal sphincter. A correctly inserted suppository does not provide resistance associated with contraction of the anus. After completing the procedure, it is necessary to ensure that the finger is removed from the anus. The patient is advised to take a lying position to distribute the medicine inside the intestines.
The course of treatment continues for 7-14 days, with the introduction of one to four suppositories daily, depending on the severity and complexity of the nature of the disease. Symptomatic treatment allows the drug to be used for anal bleeding, as a local hemostatic agent, if the body’s own resources are not enough to eliminate the problem. In addition to stopping bleeding, the product has a pronounced analgesic effect. The depth of drug administration in this case will be greater.
No cases of exceeding the dosage have been identified, subject to the doctor’s recommendations and the prescribed dose.
Natalsid suppositories, according to the instructions for use, are administered only rectally. They must be used twice a day, morning and evening, after complete bowel movements. If there is no expected effect, the daily dose of the drug can be increased to 4 per day.
How to insert a candle correctly
- Empty your bowels. If this cannot be done naturally, give a cleansing enema or take a laxative 6 to 8 hours before.
- Wash your hands well with detergent and remove the candle from the package.
- Lie on your left side, tuck your legs toward your stomach and inject the drug into the anus.
- Lie down for 10-15 minutes so that the medicine is distributed throughout the mucous membrane and absorbed.
Natalsid for hemorrhoids is usually used for about 10-14 days. If the patient does not feel better, then it is necessary to consult with the attending physician. The doctor will increase the daily dosage of the drug or advise replacing it with another one.
Suppositories for hemorrhoids Natalsid

Composition of the drug
Natalsid suppositories contain sodium alginate as a base. This is a natural plant component that is produced from seaweed. The auxiliary substance of suppositories is solid fat. It is also a natural substance.
Neither the main nor the auxiliary elements of the drug cause harm to the human body.
Side effects
The only side effect of Natalsid is a possible individual allergic reaction. If signs of intolerance appear, you should stop treatment with the drug and consult a doctor.
