Fidonal Cream

Fidonal Cream is a combination medication used to treat anal fissures, which are small tears in the lining of the anus. It helps relieve the associated symptoms such as pain, swelling, itching, and discomfort during bowel movements.

This cream works by relaxing the blood vessels in the anal area, promoting healing of the fissures. It should be used exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not discontinue the treatment abruptly without consulting your healthcare provider, as this may worsen your condition.

Before applying the cream, clean and dry the affected area thoroughly. Wash your hands before and after use to maintain hygiene. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental contact occurs, rinse the area with plenty of water immediately and seek medical advice.

Fidonal Cream is generally well tolerated. Some individuals might experience mild irritation or swelling around the application site, which typically resolves on its own. If these symptoms persist or worsen, or if you notice increased redness or infection, consult your doctor promptly.

Uses:

• Treatment of anal fissures.

Benefits:
Fidonal Cream helps reduce pain, itching, and irritation caused by anal fissures. It decreases pressure in the anal tissues by relaxing blood vessels, aiding the healing process.

How to use:
This medication is for external use only. Follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and duration.

How it works:
Fidonal Cream contains Lidocaine and Nifedipine. Lidocaine acts as a local anesthetic, blocking pain signals to reduce discomfort. Nifedipine, a calcium channel blocker, relaxes the blood vessels in the anal region, easing the fissure’s symptoms.

Safety Information:

• Use caution if you have severe kidney or liver disease, as dosage adjustments may be necessary.

• Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this cream due to limited safety data and potential risks to the baby.

• There are no known interactions with alcohol or effects on driving ability.

Missed Dose:
If you forget to apply a dose, use it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Avoid applying double doses.
