We report two patients with non-healing surgical wounds, which healed after the withdrawal of Nicorandil therapy. Nicorandil should be recognised as an aetiological factor for non-healing wounds or ulcers once other inflammatory and malignant causes have been excluded. This may avoid surgery for high-risk patients and may also reduce complications for patients who undergo surgery for non-healing wounds. As Nicorandil is used in patients with severe coronary artery disease, it is recommended that the advice of a cardiologist is sought prior to cessation or adjustment to its dose.
