OK, reading phonetically I come up with:

Anusol.

Suppository Rectalnie.

Best answer: Actually, it's more like "anuzol."

And after "rectal suppository" it gets way past my very old and limited Russian knowledge.

Googling for "Russian rectal suppositories" turns up this image.

So I think not that girl is right.

Response by poster: Good god. I bought some old transistors from a guy on Ebay from Moscow and this was the box he put them in. He must have a weird sense of humor.

it's an anti-hemorrhoidal suppository to be more specific =c)

Specifically they're anti-hemorrhoidal suppositories. So I guess that's a plus...

I think the title of the post - now that we know what the product is - is hilarious. Thanx for a good laugh, cropshy.
