ABSTRACT:
Bethanechol, diltiazem, or a combination thereof is administered locally to the anus for the treatment of benign anal disorders, in particular anal fissures and hemorrhoids. The agents induce a reduction in the mean and resting pressure, thereby assisting in the healing of the anal fissures and hemorrhoids.
