Pharmacological effect
A drug that exerts a protective effect on the blood vessels of the circulatory system (mainly veins and small vessels). Troxevasin increases the elasticity and density of the vascular wall, thereby reducing the likelihood of edema and the penetration of foreign matter into the lumen of the vessel. In addition, there is a significant increase in the tone of the vascular wall, which leads to a significant liquefaction of blood and reduction of inflammatory processes due to decrease in the phenomena of adhesion of thrombocytes.
After taking Troxevasin in the form of capsules, the drug is absorbed to a small extent, reaching its maximum concentration after 2 hours, but at the same time, the required level of the drug to achieve a therapeutic effect persists for 8 hours.

Reviews

- Marina. I know this drug since childhood. Mom suffers from varicose veins on her legs. Both before the operation, and after it was used regularly. According to her, the effect was (pain relief, severity). Now she also uses it, because of the affordable price. Tried other, more expensive ointments - effect approximately the same. Now I already use this ointment. It affects heredity and childbirth. I use it in the evening, while I'm satisfied with it. What I really like - quickly absorbed, I do not like fatty creams and ointments.
- Victoria. Troxevasin did not try a gel, but the tablets did not help. At the same time, she was upset by the fact that it appeared, the month of treatment cost them more than the month of treatment with phlebodia, just when choosing a medicine, I did not take into account the frequency of reception. Now I drink phlebodia, I heal what troksevazin could not cure.
- Julia. Our family troxevasin saves from seizures. My grandmother often suffers cramps. She even appointed a doctor, and helps quickly. And recently the husband on a summer residence has overworked and on the second day on krepaturu cramps began to suffice. Only this ointment was saved, others did not help, but this pain is not bearable. They smeared it and began to warm it up, rubbing the skin with their hands, and in five minutes it became easier for him. And there were no such strong spasms, so I advise you who suffers.
