First Nifedipine Finished-product Preparation in Palestine for the Treatment of Anal Fissures

Ramallah, August 15, 2020 – Transmed Pharma launched today Antrolin (Nifedipine-Lidocaine cream), the only registered finished-product preparation with Nifedipine that effectively and safely treats anal fissures and proctologies generally associated with anal sphincter. Pharmacy-compounded ointments of Nifedipine have existed for some time in the Palestinian market, however, in different concentrations, under no quality standards or regulatory oversight, and with a short shelf-life.

The efficacy and safety of Antrolin has been tested and proven in a series of controlled, randomized multicenter clinical studied. As a topical treatment, Antrolin is noninvasive and is highly effective in the treatment of chronic anal fishers and in some cases, it spares patients the risk, pain and recovery associated with the surgical interventions. Antrolin is manufactured under strict GMP standards by NewFaDem in Italy and is marketed and distributed in many countries around the world including Georgia, Italy and Lebanon.
