Abstract

Nicorandil is a medication used for treatment and prevention of angina pectoris. Its mode of action involves both arterial and venous vasodilation. Although there are numerous known side effects, one of the more unusual, adverse reactions is ulceration of the external genitalia. This case reports the finding of penile preputial ulceration secondary to the use of Nicorandil. The authors make some recommendations for management.
