Rectiv is an FDA-approved rectal ointment used to treat pain caused by chronic anal fissures. Rectiv decreases pressure in the anus by dilating blood vessels. It is used to treat pain caused by anal fissures which are tears in the skin lining of the anus. Rectiv is not approved for use by patients who are younger than 18 years old.
You should use Rectiv exactly as it is prescribed by your healthcare professional. Do not use this medication in smaller or larger amounts or for longer than recommended by your doctor. Do not drive immediately after you apply Rectiv. If you feel dizzy or lightheaded after you apply Rectiv, do not drive until the dizziness goes away. You should let your doctor know if you have any other underlying medical conditions like a history of heart attack, stroke, low blood pressure, headaches, or liver disease to make sure that Rectiv is safe for you to use.
The most common side effects of Rectiv are headache and dizziness. In rare cases, low blood pressure may occur. Also, in rare cases, an allergic reaction may occur. If you have symptoms of hives, skin rash, dizziness, lightheadedness, headaches, redness or swelling of face, lips, tongue, wheezing, seek emergency medical treatment. This is not a complete list of side effects; should you experience other side effects, contact your healthcare provider immediately.
You should also avoid drinking alcohol, as it can increase some of the side effects of the active ingredient, nitroglycerin, such as dizziness, drowsiness, or fainting. Drinking alcohol with Rectiv can also affect your blood pressure.
Some side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. You should ask your doctor for medical advice and additional information on Rectiv and its course of treatment.
