What is the Revivol-XR® Relief Kit?

The Revivol-XR® Relief Kit is three over-the-counter hemorrhoid relief products bought together: Advanced Hemorrhoid Cream (5% lidocaine + phenylephrine), the 20-in-1 Sitz Bath Soak Mix, and the Hygienic Cleansing Lotion. Adding the kit puts all three in your cart, the kit price is applied automatically, and they ship together in one plain box.

What is the strongest hemorrhoid cream you can buy without a prescription?

5% lidocaine is the maximum strength allowed in over-the-counter hemorrhoid creams in the United States. Revivol-XR® Advanced Hemorrhoid Cream uses that full 5% and adds phenylephrine, a vasoconstrictor that helps temporarily reduce swelling, so it is the strongest formula in the Revivol-XR® line.

How fast does Revivol-XR® hemorrhoid cream work?

Lidocaine typically begins numbing within a few minutes of application, which is why the cream is the first step of the routine during a flare-up. Individual results vary, and relief is temporary, so reapply as directed on the label.

How do you use a sitz bath for hemorrhoids?

Dissolve one scoop of Sitz Bath Soak Mix in a few inches of warm (not hot) water in a sitz bath basin or clean tub, then sit for 10 to 15 minutes. Most people soak once or twice a day during a flare-up, and after bowel movements, to calm irritated tissue and keep the area clean.

Is it safe to use hemorrhoid cream every day?

Follow the directions on the label. Revivol-XR® creams are OTC monograph products meant for temporary relief. If symptoms do not improve within 7 days, get worse, or you notice bleeding, stop use and talk to a doctor.

Do I need a prescription, and is shipping discreet?

No prescription is needed. Every Revivol-XR® product is available over the counter and ships free within the continental USA in plain packaging with no product description on the outside.
