About Fidonal Cream 30 gm
Fidonal
Cream 30 gm is a combination of two different drugs, namely Lidocaine (local
anaesthetic) and Nifedipine (calcium channel blocker), used in the treatment of
Anal fissure (tear in the lining of the anus). An anal fissure is usually a
small tear or cut in the lining of the anus. This crack in the skin is
responsible for causing extreme pain and bleeding during and after bowel
movements. Sometimes these fissures can be deep enough to cause spasms in the
anal sphincter, which is the end part of the anus. A person dealing with anal
fissures may experience pain during/ after a bowel movement, bleeding during
the stool, and a visible crack around the anus area.
Lidocaine is a local anaesthetic. It blocks pain signals
from the nerves to the brain, decreasing the pain sensation. Nifedipine is a
calcium channel blocker (CCB). It works in anal fissures by blocking the action
of calcium on the blood vessels of the anus. Altogether the Fidonal Cream 30 gm
works by relaxing the smooth muscles around the anus area and promoting the
proper blood flow in that region that helps to heal the fissure quickly.
Fidonal Cream 30 gm also reduces the anal canal pressure, which diminishes the
pain and spasm in the anal region.

Medicinal Benefits
Fidonal Cream
30 gm consists of two drugs, namely Lidocaine and Nifedipine. Lidocaine belongs
to the class of local anaesthesia and is used to diminish inconvenience or pain
associated with anal fissures. Being a sedative, it works by causing temporary
loss of sensation in the anal region. It does so by blocking both the
initiation and conduction of nerve impulses by decreasing the neuronal membrane's
permeability to sodium ions, further reducing depolarization with the resultant
blockade of conduction.

30 gm, clean the affected area with gentle soap and water. Then rinse, and pat

inch inside the anus area. Also, apply the drug to the anal opening as
suggested by the doctor. Discard the applicator after every single use and
never reuse it.
