Drug Details
Nitroglycerin ointment, commonly known under the brand name Rectiv, is a prescription medication used to alleviate pain from moderate to severe anal fissures in adults. This ointment belongs to the nitrate class of drugs and functions by relaxing the sphincter muscle in the anus. This relaxation improves blood flow, reduces pressure, and consequently eases pain, promoting faster healing of the fissures. Patients are typically advised to apply the ointment to the anus every 12 hours, following the dosing instructions provided. While effective, common side effects may include headaches and dizziness. As nitroglycerin ointment requires a prescription, it is important to discuss its use with a healthcare professional to ensure it is appropriate and safe for your condition.
