Definitions
- Topical Nifedipine preparations for the conservative treatment of functional pathologies of the anal canal are topical Nifedipine preparations for the conservative treatment of functional pathologies of the anal canal.
- the present invention relates to the new use of Nifedipine, a well known active principle commonly used against heart and circulatory disorders.
- the new use is geared towards treatment of functional pathologies of the anal canal .
- Nifedipine that is a dimethyl ester of 1,4 dihydro-2,6 dimethyl -4- (2-nitrophenyl) -3 , 5-pyridinecarboxylic acid, is effective in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and for that purpose oral administration is recommended .
- Proctologic diseases are eventually eradicated by a careful employment of surgical techniques, which have undergone a remarkable development in recent times but do indeed represent a defeat for pharmacological therapies .
- Non invasive therapies are known but they have so far resorted to anti-inflammatory drugs as disclosed by .Klug and H.G.Knoch in Colo-Proctology (1993) 1, pp 22-28, and by McDonald et al . in the British Journal of Surgery (1983), 70, pp.25-26 and to other preparations from which Nifedipine was excluded.
- Aim of the present invention is to propose the use of Nifedipine in medicaments for the treatment of proctologic pathologies like anal fissure, anal tenesmus and haemorroids, and to outline the main features of a therapy based on the above compound.
- Nifedipine by local external application in therapies against pathologies comprising anal rhagades, rectal tenesmus, anal spasm, haemorroids, in suppository form for the treatment against ischemic cholitis, bladder tenesmus and as a gel, cream or ointment by local application or in preparation colonoscopy and cystoscopy.
- the present invention also comprises the use of Nifedipine in association with pharmaceuticals such as local anaesthetics like lidocaine, carbocaine, non- steroidal or caustic antiinflammatories, mesclepine, and with any pharmaceutical against ulcerous recto- cholitis and aspecific proctites.
- pharmaceuticals such as local anaesthetics like lidocaine, carbocaine, non- steroidal or caustic antiinflammatories, mesclepine, and with any pharmaceutical against ulcerous recto- cholitis and aspecific proctites.
- Nifedipine is a dihydropyridine whose structure is shown in Figure 1 below:
- Targeting and overcoming sphincter hypertonicity leads to therapeutically effective treatments of several proctologic pathologies and disorders due to organic pathologies like rectal tenesmus during ulcerative cholitis of the rectum.
- Sphincter hypertonicity is often associated with other contributory causes like mechanical lesions given by hard stools, and skin lacerations in acute enteritis, ulceration in intra-anal thrombosis, cryptitis and overuse of laxatives.
- Sphincter hypertonicity of the continual type, in its internal region, is brought about by an inflammatory infiltrate from an anal skin lesion, whilst, concomitantly , the external sphincter responds with cramp-like contractions.
- Nifedipine has been advantageously proven by experimental studies to have an antiinflammatory action, a modulating effect on the microcirculation and an ability to act locally.
- This further action quenches the inflammation which is known to confer momentum to the pathologic interactions that establish between the internal and the external regions of the sphincter and can be advocated in the proctologic pathologies which are sustained by a hyertonicity of the internal and external anal sphincter.
- Nifedipine in association with pharmaceuticals such as local anaesthetics, lidocaine, carbocaine and alikes is also viable. Furthermore its association with non-steroidal or caustic antiinflammatories, mesclepine and with whichever pharmaceutical with therapeutical viability within therapies against ulcerous recto-cholitis and aspecific proctites has been seen to yield to positive results.
- Clinical trials were conducted on 423 patients suffering from anal fissure, anal tenesmus and haemorroids. These were subdivided into six groups, of which three control groups underwent standard treatments according to traditional conservative protocols, while the other three groups of patients were treated by local application of Nifedipine gel. The patients were subdivided into 3 groups:
- Group 1 283 individuals suffering from acute anal fissure .
- Group 2 60 individuals suffering from haemorroids.
- Group 3 80 individuals suffering from anal tenesmus, rectum.
- Example 1 Patients suffering from anal fissure. Two subgroups with 141 and 142 patients suffering from the above and aged 47 ⁇ 10 years respectively were considered.
- Example 2 Patients suffering from haemorroids.
- Example 3 Patients suffering from anal tenesmus.
- Nifedipine which at present concerns cardiovascular pathologies, should be extended with local use, to pathologies like anal fissure, anal tenesmus, and haemorroids associated with sphincter hypertonicity.
- pathologies like anal fissure, anal tenesmus, and haemorroids associated with sphincter hypertonicity.
