Hello and thanks for asking your query on HealthcareMagic forum,
Have seen your details and I appreciate your concern.
One of the most important role of coating any tablet is to prevent the inner salt from coming in contact with atmosphere.
Any medicine you are having is a chemical.
A chemical if comes in contact with air or water may change it properties and may become useless. Therefore such medicines should not be used.
As of now no need to worry but in future dispose off such medicines.
Gloves are used to prevent any type of infection.
Fingers of your doctor contains a number of bacteria's which may come in direct contact with your hemorrhoids which are a sort of open wounds and may cause infection. Therefore gloves are used.
