Nifedipine Ointment
Compounded nifedipine ointment is a prescription-only topical calcium channel blocker used to treat chronic anal fissures and relieve rectal pain by relaxing the internal anal sphincter and improving local blood flow. Often used as a non-surgical alternative to lateral sphincterotomy, nifedipine helps promote healing of fissured tissue and reduce spasms that contribute to discomfort. This formulation is commonly prescribed in proctology and colorectal care and is compounded in patient-specific strengths and soothing ointment bases to maximize tolerability and therapeutic effectiveness.
Prescribers choose compounded nifedipine ointment because it isn't commercially available in this form, and the concentration can be tailored to the patient. We compound the ointment to the exact strength your prescriber specifies, made to order for each patient in our pharmacy.
This is a compounded medication prepared to your prescription and used under a prescriber's guidance. Your prescriber will explain how and how often to apply it. Every batch is pharmacist-compounded, quality-verified, and shipped nationwide. Prescription required.
