FIDONAL CREAM is a combination of Lignocaine and Nifedipine, which belongs to the group of medicines called Local anaesthetics and Calcium channel blockers. It is used to relieve pain and relax muscles during the treatment or examination of anal fissures, thrombosed external haemorrhoids, post-haemorrhoidectomy, anal sphincter hypertonia, etc.
An anal fissure is a small cut or tear in the delicate lining of the anus that occurs when passing hard or large stools, causing pain and bleeding during bowel movements. Sometimes the pain caused by the anal fissure leads to contraction of the muscle that controls bowel movements and frequent bowel movements.
Before applying FIDONAL CREAM, inform your doctor if you have severely injured mucosa, inflammation of the areas in the rectum, diabetes, liver or kidney cardiac insufficiency, etc. Pregnant (especially during the first trimester) and breastfeeding women should use FIDONAL CREAM with caution.
FIDONAL CREAM is not recommended for use in children and adolescents (below 18 years of age) and should be used with caution in elderly patients. Consult your doctor before applying. The common side effects of FIDONAL CREAM are pain, burning sensations, itching, hyperemia and bleeding. Consult your doctor if any of the symptoms worsen.
Lignocaine is a local anaesthetic that numbs the area where you have applied it by stopping nerves from sending pain signals to the brain. Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes the muscles in the anal opening. This collective action is useful for relieving pain and healing anal fissures.

Wash your hands before use and if possible, use a finger covering, such as a plastic wrap, cling film, a finger cot or a disposable glove.
