Description

Glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) ointment is used mainly to manage pain and discomfort that is caused by chronic anal fissures. Since GTN dilates blood vessels it allows for the smooth muscles in the anal sphincter to improve blood flow which leads to better healing of the fissure.

Key Benefits

One of the main uses of GTN 0.2% ointment is to help alleviate pain in chronic anal fissures and allow for better healing of the affected area. It is also used under a specialist's supervision in other conditions requiring localized vasodilation.

How to use GTN 0.2% ointment
