Crema Gel contains diltiazem and is used to manage anal fissures and the discomfort of small tears in the lining of the anus. It works by relaxing the muscles around the anus and improving blood flow to the area, which eases the strong pain often felt during bowel movements and creates the right conditions for the tissue to heal. As a vasodilator, diltiazem lowers the pressure in the anal canal, reducing the chance of further tearing and breaking the cycle of pain and muscle spasm. It is an important part of treating long-term and sudden fissures without surgery.
Apply the gel only as your doctor advises, usually a small amount on the affected area, and follow the recommended length of treatment so the fissure heals fully. Consult your doctor before use, and if you get ongoing headaches, local irritation, or anything unusual, tell your doctor promptly.

How Cremagel Gel 30Gm Works?
- Cremagel 2% Gel is a topical medication used to treat anal fissures. The active ingredient in Cremagel 2% Gel is Diltiazem hydrochloride, which belongs to a class of medications known as calcium channel blockers.
- Calcium channel blockers block the influx of calcium ions into smooth muscle cells, including those in the anal sphincter. By minimising the concentration of calcium ions in these cells, Cremagel 2% Gel causes the muscle fibres to relax, reducing pressure on the anal fissure and promoting healing.
- Additionally, Cremagel 2% Gel has been shown to decrease anal sphincter pressure, which can help to reduce further pain and discomfort associated with anal fissures.
