What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Proctofoam HC Overview
This combination medication is used to treat minor pain, itching, swelling, and discomfort caused by hemorrhoids and other problems of the anal area (such as anal fissures). Proctofoam HC contains pramoxine, an anesthetic that works by temporarily numbing the area. Proctofoam HC also contains hydrocortisone, a corticosteroid that reduces redness, itching, and swelling.
