nitroglycerin and Anal Fissure

nitroglycerin has been researched along with Anal Fissure in 200 studies

Nitroglycerin: A volatile vasodilator which relieves ANGINA PECTORIS by stimulating GUANYLATE CYCLASE and lowering cytosolic calcium. It is also sometimes used for TOCOLYSIS and explosives.
nitroglycerol : A nitrate ester that is glycerol in which nitro group(s) replace the hydrogen(s) attached to one or more of the hydroxy groups.
nitroglycerin : A nitroglycerol that is glycerol in which the hydrogen atoms of all three hydroxy groups are replaced by nitro groups. It acts as a prodrug, releasing nitric oxide to open blood vessels and so alleviate heart pain.

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in Pain Intensity at Days 14-18

"Participants rated the pain associated with their chronic anal fissure over the preceding 24 hours on a 100 mm visual analog scale at Baseline and on Days 14 through 18. The average pain rating on Days 14 through 18 was calculated and used to determine the change from Baseline. The left-end of the visual analog scale was labelled least possible pain and the right-end of the visual analog scale was labelled worst possible pain. The pain rating ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating more pain. A negative change score indicated improvement." (NCT00522041)
Timeframe: Baseline to Day 18

InterventionUnits on a scale (Mean)
Cellegesic (Nitroglycerin 0.4%)-40.4
Placebo-34.9

Percentage of Responders

"Participants rated the pain associated with their chronic anal fissure over the preceding 24 hours on a 100 mm visual analog scale at Baseline and on Days 14 through 18. The average pain rating on Days 14 through 18 was calculated. The left-end of the visual analog scale was labelled least possible pain and the right-end of the visual analog scale was labelled worst possible pain. The pain rating ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating more pain. A responder was defined as a participant with either a ≥ 50% decrease or a ≥ 10 mm decrease from Baseline in the 24 hour average pain intensity averaged over Days 14 to 18." (NCT00522041)

"Participants rated the pain associated with their chronic anal fissure over the preceding 24 hours on a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS) at Baseline and on each of the 21 treatment days of the study. The left-end of the visual analog scale was labelled least possible pain and the right-end of the visual analog scale was labelled worst possible pain. The pain rating ranged from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating more pain. Improvement was defined as either a ≥ 50% decrease or a ≥ 10 mm decrease from Baseline in rated pain intensity."
