Yes pilex and cureveda skin gut powder can be taken together, but after taking of you feel any discomfort you need to consult your ayurvedic doctor. Pilex if you are having Anal fissure, then take 2 tablets twice daily Also locally apply on anal region pilex cream.for better and faster results Avoid spicy, heat producing foods Avoid nonveg food Take buttermilk with pinch of asafoetida black salt and roasted jeera powder after lunch daily.
