Venotonics for varicose veins of the legs - drugs for treatment. What venotonics are prescribed for varicose veins of the legs? What are venotonic drugs

Expansion of veins is the number 1 problem of our time. Both women and men of different ages and social status are susceptible to this disease. That is why the prevention and treatment of the disease is a priority for phlebologists. Venotonics for varicose veins of the legs are one of the most widely used drugs that have positive effects in the treatment of the disease.

Venotonics - drugs of complex action, which belong to the group of angioprotectors. This group of drugs has an improving effect on the condition of the vessels of the legs and is used in the treatment of diseases of the cardiovascular system. They are used not only for treatment, but also for prevention.

Venotonics - what it is will be explained in more detail by the attending physician. Self-medication for any disease is unacceptable, and with varicose veins it can have irreversible consequences.

Among the actions that venotonics have, the most important are:

• toning of the walls of blood vessels, which increases the elasticity of blood vessels and normalizes pressure in the vascular bed;
• strengthening of the walls of blood vessels by reducing the permeability of blood vessels and their fragility, which leads to an improvement in microcirculation and a decrease in the formation of edema;
• anti-inflammatory by reducing the formation of pro-inflammatory factors and enzymes, which leads to a decrease in pain during varicose veins on the legs and a decrease in swelling;
• general strengthening of blood vessels by improving blood flow.

Indications for the appointment of venotonics for the legs are:

• phlebeurysm;
• chronic venous insufficiency;
• diseases of the cardiovascular system.

Contraindications for prescribing venotonic drugs are:

• intolerance to the components that make up the drugs;
• diseases of the digestive system;
• pregnancy for a number of drugs.

Classification

According to the composition of venotonics from varicose veins are:

1. Plant origin:
   • flavonoids, on the basis of which Detralex, Diosmin, Venarus, Vasoket are produced;
   • saponins created from natural digitalis glycosides, calendula, licorice, chestnut, ginseng: Aescusan, Herbion esculus, Aescin;
2. Rutoside-containing, consist of glycosides with a high content of vitamin P, which act on the vascular wall: Rutin, Troxevasin, Venoruton, Troxerutin;
3. Combined venotonics containing in their composition components of plant and synthetic origin, which have additional effects on the legs with varicose veins in the form of a decrease in the inflammatory response, an analgesic effect, a decrease in blood clotting: Doppelherz, Troxevasin Neo, Vitrum Memory, Venorm, Angionorm;
4. Synthetic created on the basis of tribenoside, calcium salts: Glivenol, Tribenoside, Calcium Dobesilate;
5. Polyvalent, which act on different mechanisms of damage to the vascular wall and have a lymphotropic effect by increasing lymphatic outflow, restoring vascular muscle tone and activating blood circulation in small capillaries. Such venotonics cause an outflow of blood from varicose veins, which reduces pain in the legs and their swelling: Detralex, Troxevasin, Aescusan.

According to the form of release, they distinguish:

• Venotonics for external use (cream, ointment, gel);
• Preparations for internal use (tablets, capsules, injection solutions, suppositories).

Application during pregnancy

The use of venotonics during pregnancy is permissible only after consulting a pregnant woman with an obstetrician-gynecologist and phlebologist. Self-treatment for varicose veins is strictly prohibited, as this can cause a threatening spontaneous miscarriage or childbirth, as well as have a teratogenic effect on the fetus.

The appointment of venotonics is carried out according to the trimers of pregnancy.

• In the first trimester of pregnancy for up to 12 weeks, it is possible to prescribe only drugs for external use in the form of ointments, creams or gels.
• In the second trimester of pregnancy, it is possible to prescribe drugs inside.
• Preparations based on troxerutin, diosmin and hesperidin (Detralex, Troxevasin, Phlebodia 600) do not have contraindications for the period of pregnancy.

During pregnancy, the legs can be treated in other ways. This and much more is discussed in detail.

Venotonic preparations in tablets and capsules

Venotonic preparations for varicose veins of the legs, which are available in the form of tablets or capsules, are divided depending on which component is included in their composition:

Venotonics containing Diosmin and/or Hesperidin. This group of drugs has decongestant, anticonvulsant, analgesic effects, as well as improved microcirculation and tissue trophism:

Preparations based on Diosmin:

• Vasoket, tablets of 15 or 30 pieces, German manufacturer;

• Ginkor fort, 30 capsules of French production;
• Troxevasin 30 or 50 capsules produced in Bulgaria.

Preparations based on Rutozid . This group of medicines for varicose veins based on bioflavonoids can increase the elasticity of red blood cells, reduce vascular fragility, and improve microcirculation:

Created on the basis of grape leaves:

• Antistaks, German-made gel.

Biologically active additives based on Diosmin and Hesperidin:

• Venozol, gel from a Russian manufacturer.

Venotonics in food

As a preventive measure for varicose veins in the legs, venotonics contained in food can be used. As a method of treatment, products are ineffective, since a large number of them will be required for the required dosage. However, to maintain the vessels of the lower extremities, the intake of such products is necessary.

From food products with a high content of flavonoids have a tonic effect on the vascular wall:

• red grapes;
• natural grape wine;
• dog-rose fruit;
• all citrus fruits;
• green tea;
• peel of apples and the fruits themselves to a lesser extent;
• buckwheat.

Venotonics are drugs designed to resist the destruction of the structure of the venous wall.

What diseases do veins need support for?

When we talk about vascular diseases, we mean arteries, veins or capillaries. More often, the lesion begins predominantly from one of the species, but extends to the entire bloodstream. Recall that oxygen and nutrients are delivered to the tissues through the arteries, and through the capillaries they reach the cellular level.

The venous system is designed to carry out the removal of waste material, carbon dioxide through vessels of a certain type. They differ from arterial ones in their adaptation to work against gravity.

Any mechanical obstruction in the path of the veins can cause impaired patency and blood stasis. In addition, without the support of muscles, nerve impulses and strong heart contractions, the venous system cannot cope with the load. The clinical picture depends on the location of the pathology.

The choice of venotonics for the treatment of migraine is more justified than taking antispasmodic drugs

One of the causes of headaches, nausea, dizziness with migraine, tumors of the skull is a disturbed venous outflow from the brain. A common disease, varicose veins of the lower extremities, occurs when there is a violation of the venous outflow from the vessels of the legs. Hemorrhoids with prolapsed nodes and an expanded network of the outer and inner rings are also a type of varicose veins. In this case, the venous outflow from the lower rectum does not work properly.

Pregnancy is not a disease, but a woman's condition is often on the verge of pathology. The pressure of the uterus on the organs and vessels of the small pelvis creates the conditions for the development of hemorrhoids and varicose veins on the legs. Venotonics help to endure pregnancy without complications.

What should be venotonics

Medicinal preparations of venotonics are necessary in the complex treatment of these diseases. The best remedies should:

• consist of safe components (advantages on the side of herbal remedies);
• not have a harmful effect on internal organs;
• have a sufficient duration of action;
• well combined with different drugs, with other methods of treatment.

A convenient form of application and an affordable price are also an important feature of drugs for vascular tone.

Semi-synthetic drug based on rutin, "extracted" from the leaves and flowers of buckwheat, Japanese sophora buds or odorous rue

Classification

The classification divides venotonics according to the method of exposure and use into external agents - creams, ointment-based preparations - and internal ones - tablets, capsules, ampoules for injection.

Rectal suppositories in action are internal, but according to the method of use they are closer to external types, since they do not affect the stomach and intestines in any way.

Types of drugs

By composition, all venotonics are classified into pharmaceutical groups:

• herbal preparations, these include products containing flavonoids and saponins;
• medicines from rutoside;
• combined preparations containing simultaneously drugs that affect blood clotting, anti-inflammatory drugs, painkillers, herbal and synthetic components;
• synthesized from chemicals;
• polyvalent drugs that correct various mechanisms of venous damage.

Flavonoids are herbal remedies with biological activity. Preparations based on them include: Detralex, Diosmin, Venarus, Vasoket.

Saponins are natural glycosides from medicinal plants (digitis, calendula, licorice, chestnut, ginseng). They have the ability to prevent blood clotting. This group includes: Aescusan, Herbion esculus, Aescin.

Rutosides are singled out by pharmacologists as a separate group, although they are also glycosides, because they have a high content of vitamin P. Preparations such as Rutin, Troxevasin, Venoruton, Troxerutin are prepared from them. Drugs purposefully act on the muscle fibers of the veins.

The group of combined agents includes Doppelherz, Troxevasin Neo, Vitrum Memory, Venorm, Angionorm.

Synthetic venotonics include drugs, the content of tribenoside, calcium salts. These are preparations Glivenol, Tribenozide, Calcium Dobesilat.

Modern drugs with a lymphotropic effect are called polyvalent. Their mechanism of action is carried out in the following ways:

• increased discharge of the liquid part of venous blood into the lymphatic vessels;
• restoration of the tone of the muscular layer of the veins;
• activation of blood circulation in small arterioles and capillaries.

In this way, stagnation in the veins is facilitated, peripheral edema is removed. This group includes Detralex, Troxevasin, Aescusan.

What drugs are used for stagnation in the veins of the head

The most common cause of congestion in the vessels of the brain are changes in the muscles of the neck with osteochondrosis, impaired cerebral circulation. In treatment, it is very important to prevent platelets from sticking together. Aescusan, Detralex, Phlebodia 600 have the desired effect.

Aescusan is made from horse chestnut, produced in drops and tablets. It has a general effect on the entire venous system. Gels Gerbion esculus and Venitan were created on the same basis. They are recommended to be rubbed into the collar zone. The most effective is the simultaneous use of internal and external forms. The price of a bottle of 20 ml is 150 rubles.

In Detralex, the active substances are the flavonoids hesperidin and diosmin from citrus fruits. The drug enters the distribution network from France, so it is the most expensive in price (a package of 30 tablets costs about 700 rubles).

The drug is considered to be the most effective

Phlebodia 600 is also produced in France, it is based only on diosmin. The price of 30 tablets is 800 rubles.

Venotonics in the treatment of varicose veins of the legs

With the initial manifestations of varicose veins (mesh on the legs), in addition to ingestion of the described most effective drugs of general action, Russian analogues of Detralex are recommended - Venozol (tablets and capsules from 300 to 530 rubles, gel - 130) and Venarus. The preparations use the combined properties of flavonoids and medicinal herbs.

Member of the flavonoid class

What can be used for hemorrhoids

Ointments are recommended for the treatment of external hemorrhoids. With internal varicose veins in combination with mucosal fissures, rectal suppositories of combined action (support for veins, pain relief, inflammation relief, prevention of thrombosis) are the most suitable.

Venotonics for hemorrhoids are also prescribed orally in the form of tablets or capsules.

Glivenol is available for internal use in capsules (130 rubles for 20 capsules) and in the form of Procto-Glivenol in suppositories and ointments (10 suppositories - 550 rubles). The basis of the drug is the substance tribenoside.

Ginkor Procto - candles with butamben and Ginkgo biloba extract, have a tonic effect on pelvic varicose veins, quickly relieve pain. Surgeons recommend after surgery (price from 130 rubles per pack).

Supplements with a tonic effect

We often see advertisements with advice to use Doppelhertz and Shungite supplements. When purchasing these drugs, you need to be aware that you need to take them for years and constantly. These are not drugs. There is no evidence base for their effectiveness.

Doppelhertz is available in liquid form, packs of 250 ml (price 400 rubles), 1000 ml. As part of exclusively vegetable raw materials, extracts from mountain ash, blueberries, grape leaves, needles, hawthorn, St. John's wort, valerian root, lemon balm, rosemary and sage. The drug is enriched with vitamins B 2 and B 6.

It is indicated as a venotonic for hemorrhoids, in the complex treatment of diseases of the heart and blood vessels. Applied inside.

The action is enhanced by Ginkgo biloba and essential oils of fir, lavender, tea tree, citrus fruits. Used in rubbing, compresses.

What venotonics can be used during pregnancy

For the treatment of pregnant women, doctors try to do with light herbal preparations that do not affect the tone of the uterus and the development of the fetus. An obstetrician-gynecologist will help you choose the right venotonics during pregnancy, taking into account the trimester. At the beginning of the term (the first 12 weeks), only external gels can be used for rubbing into the skin of the legs. From the second trimester, the doctor allows the use of Detralex, Troxevasin, Phlebodia 600.

These venotonics based on troxerutin, diosmin or hesperidin are the least dangerous for the mother and fetus.

Treatment of venous diseases is carried out by a phlebologist. In case of difficulties in the selection of drugs, you should contact him for a consultation.

Reviews on the use of venotonics speak of personal experience and preferences:

Let me add to your phrase: “Aescusan, Detralex, Phlebodia 600 have the desired effect.” In addition to these expensive tablets, there is an excellent domestic analogue with the same active ingredient Diosmin and Hesperidin "is called the drug FLEBOFA. Only it costs several times cheaper, and the manufacturer has launched a 1 + 1 program, which allows you to immediately buy pills for a course of treatment. Those. 60 tablets for the price of 30.

I prefer new Russian developments on a completely plant basis (then the kidneys and liver do not have to be treated). I share: a new drug venotonic GORKHON 60caps 1100 rubles (for 2 months of admission). As part of the flavonoids diosmin + rutin 500mg per 1 caps. Sold in specialized stores Siberian health. You can add an external venotonic cream to it (menthol, hesperidin, lysolecithin, winter-loving oil) 75ml for 199 rubles

Now a venotonic gel has appeared in Russia, which is allowed for pregnant women at any time. Absolutely natural and safe. It is called VENADORONE, the company is Weleda, it is sold in pharmacies.

• violation of the normal nutrition of surrounding tissues with the formation of trophic ulcers;
• infectious and inflammatory complications;
• bleeding from dilated thinned vessels.

Severe forms of venous insufficiency, as well as complications that have arisen, are treated mainly surgically. In the early stages of the disease, venotonics are one of the main methods of treatment.

• prevention (at subclinical stages of the disease);
• relief of the main symptoms of the disease (pain, swelling, heaviness in the affected area, etc.);
• preventing complications;
• before and after surgery for venous insufficiency.

Mechanism of action of venotonics. Venotonics of polyvalent action with lymphotropic effect

1. Venotropic substances, mainly increasing the contraction of the muscle elements of the venous wall.

2. Venotropic substances, mainly improving blood circulation (reducing plasma leakage into the surrounding tissues).

• increase the tone of venous vessels;
• improve blood circulation in the surrounding tissues due to the normalization of blood flow in the smallest vessels;
• prevent the formation of blood clots;
• have an anti-inflammatory effect;
• reduce swelling of tissues, normalizing the state of lymphatic outflow.

Classification of venotonics

List of venotonics

1. Venotonics based on flavonoids - diosmin and hesperidin. They have a systemic effect, are intended for oral administration (tablet forms).

• Diosmin-based venotonics (Diosmin, Phlebodia 600, Vasoket, Diovenor 600).
• Venotonics based on a combination of diosmin and hesperidin (Detralex, Venarus).

2. Pharmaceutical preparations containing a synthetic analogue of the flavonoid rutin - troxerutin (Troxevasin, Troxevenol, Troxerutin). The most “ancient” practice-tested group includes both drugs for oral administration and dosage forms intended for topical use.

3. Medicines based on pentoxifylline. Increase the tone of venous vessels by reducing the permeability of capillaries. Significantly improve tissue trophism. Unlike the above groups of drugs, they have serious contraindications, side effects are more common.

4. Preparations from medicinal raw materials (phytotablets, as well as creams, ointments and balms containing juices, extracts and vegetable oils).

Venotonics in violation of venous outflow of various localization: indications, rules of admission, reviews (answers to the most popular questions about the treatment of various forms of venous insufficiency)

Can venotonics for the legs prevent the development of varicose veins

• features of the functioning of the hormonal system;
• childbearing (increased load on the venous system during pregnancy);
• more common inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs, which contribute to the development of venous congestion;
• the use of uncomfortable high-heeled shoes and clothing that restricts the outflow of blood from the lower extremities.

Varicose veins are associated with upright posture and are an exclusively "human" pathology; scientists have not been able to experimentally cause varicose veins in animals. Therefore, this pathology often affects people who are forced to stay in an upright position for a long time (sellers, bartenders, etc.).

• timely treatment of all concomitant diseases that contribute to the development of varicose veins;
• normalization of weight;
• compliance with the rules of occupational health;
• mobile lifestyle;
• giving up bad habits (abuse of high-heeled shoes, the habit of sitting cross-legged, etc.).

Venotonics are recommended as a prophylactic in cases where it is not possible to completely eliminate provoking factors (pregnancy, work associated with prolonged standing, chronic pathologies that are difficult to treat, etc.).

When to start using venotonics for varicose veins of the lower extremities

1. Stage of compensation when the anatomical defect is sufficiently compensated by the body's defenses. So, apart from the visual expansion of the superficial veins of the lower extremities, the patient is not bothered by anything. At this stage, as a rule, only women who are concerned about a cosmetic defect turn to the doctor.

2. Subcompensation stage when compensatory mechanisms are no longer able to completely prevent the development of symptoms such as:

• swelling of the legs, appearing in the evening;
• feeling of heaviness and / or pain in the muscles of the legs;
• night cramps of the calf muscles.

3.Decompensation stage A characterized by the appearance of moderately pronounced signs of malnutrition of the medial part of the ankle in its lower third, such as:

• eczema-like (weeping) dermatitis.

4.Decompensation stage B is an indicator of the neglect of the disease and is characterized by the appearance of deep trophic ulcers and hyperpigmentation (persistent darkening of the skin).

At what stages of development of the pathology of venotonics for varicose veins of the legs are no longer effective

Effective venotonics for hemorrhoids

• disruption of the normal functioning of the final section of the intestine (chronic constipation, intestinal obstruction, functional disorders of the activity of the sphincter of the rectum, etc.);
• pregnancy;
• "sedentary work;
• diseases that occur with an increase in intra-abdominal pressure (prostate adenoma, chronic cough (smoker's bronchitis, tuberculosis), asthmatic diseases, ascites, neoplasms of the abdominal cavity, etc.);
• pathologies accompanied by venous blood stasis (inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs - prostatitis, adnexitis), neoplasms that compress venous trunks, adhesive bowel disease);
• increased physical activity.

With hemorrhoids, the veins of the hemorrhoidal plexus expand and overflow with blood, resulting in the formation of pathological nodes located inside the rectum (internal hemorrhoids) or in the anus (external hemorrhoids).

• increase the tone of the veins of the hemorrhoidal plexus and contribute to the subsidence of pathological nodes;
• normalize blood properties, preventing the formation of blood clots;
• strengthen the walls of blood vessels, preventing the development of bleeding;
• improve blood microcirculation in the surrounding tissues, helping to eliminate edema.

Venotonics are used in the treatment of both acute and chronic hemorrhoids. As a rule, course treatment is used, the duration of which is determined by the attending proctologist. In order for venotonics to be effective for hemorrhoids, an integrated approach is needed, which includes a diet with the exclusion of smoked, spicy, salty foods and alcohol, as well as normalization of the stool. In addition, as a rule, local treatment (suppositories or ointments) is prescribed using antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory and painkillers.

Are herbal venotonics prescribed for pelvic varicose veins for prophylactic purposes?

• hereditary defect in the structure of the veins;
• heavy physical labor (especially weight lifting);
• features of sexual life that contribute to stagnation of blood in the small pelvis;
• long stay in a sitting position;
• gynecological diseases (incorrect position of the uterus, endometriosis, neoplasms of the uterus and ovaries, inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs).

For prophylactic purposes, venotonics are not prescribed for varicose veins of the small pelvis. Women with a hereditary predisposition to the development of venous insufficiency should be especially careful in the postpartum period, treat gynecological diseases in a timely manner, observe occupational hygiene and the correct daily routine.

Venotonics for varicose veins of the small pelvis (reviews and recommendations)

• pulling pains in the lower abdomen, radiating to the perineum;
• the appearance or intensification of pain after menstruation;
• the appearance or intensification of pain after intercourse;
• the presence of venous nodules on the labia, in the perineum, on the buttocks, on the upper third of the thigh.

All signs, with the exception of the last one, are nonspecific and occur in many gynecological diseases. It is extremely important to seek help from a competent specialist who can make a reliable diagnosis.

Venotonics for varicose veins

There are many radical ways to treat varicose veins. At the same time, conservative therapy options do not lose their relevance. Venotonics for varicose veins are most effective when administered simultaneously with other types of treatment. Drugs in this category are produced by many pharmacological companies. They differ in names, prices and chemical composition.

Venotonics for varicose veins of the legs and small pelvis have a general principle of action. These funds strengthen the walls of blood vessels, restore their former elasticity and stimulate the outflow of blood. To achieve a lasting result, a course medicine is recommended. Venotonics are produced in different forms - these are balms and tablets for oral administration, gels and topical ointments. Often drugs can have additional properties. Venotonics for the legs can relieve swelling, eliminate pain and a feeling of heaviness in the legs. It is impossible to choose medicines in this category on your own. If symptoms of varicose veins appear, you should consult a doctor.

With pelvic varicose veins

Venotonics of general action are prescribed for any manifestations of varicose veins. These drugs will help with pelvic pathology. It is worth considering pharmacological agents for oral administration. The safest are products based on plant extracts.

Vitalotonic (trademark Doppelhertz) has a minimum number of contraindications. You can not use it during pregnancy and lactation. This tool improves metabolic processes in the body, strengthens blood vessels and stimulates blood circulation. With serious manifestations of varicose veins of the small pelvis, its effectiveness will be negligible. If the disease is diagnosed at the initial stage, this remedy will improve the patient's condition.

Used for varicose veins of the small pelvis venotonics in tablets. Known drugs are Detralex and Antistax. The second remedy was created on the basis of extracts from grape leaves. Antistax can cause an allergic reaction, patients should be careful about their health in the first days of admission.

During pregnancy

During the bearing of a child, body weight inevitably increases and serious hormonal changes occur in the body. These factors

progression of varicose veins. Can venotonics be taken during pregnancy? There is no consensus on this issue even among competent experts. Some doctors prescribe drugs that strengthen the walls of blood vessels as a preventive measure to all patients. Others suggest delaying treatment until the baby is born. My patients used a proven remedy, thanks to which you can get rid of varicose veins in 2 weeks without much effort.

When symptoms of varicose veins appear, a consultation with a gynecologist and phlebologist is necessary. Together, specialists must balance the need for treatment and the risks of complications. Many modern venotonics in violation of venous outflow can be used during childbearing and during lactation. The drug Detralex is very popular. Its main active substance - diosmin - affects not only the state of the vessels, but also the movement of lymph and blood. The most effective drug for the treatment of varicose veins of the lower extremities, it can be taken in the final, third trimester of pregnancy.

While carrying a child, you can also take Venarus and Phlebodia tablets. Both drugs have a combined effect and can be used to treat various manifestations of varicose veins. During pregnancy, vascular pathologies can be treated with many topical agents. These are gels and ointments for the legs, as well as some suppositories for hemorrhoids.

Dreaming of a beautiful and healthy baby, as well as planning a pregnancy, women are trying to find out.

When blood clots occur, their symptoms differ among themselves, depending on the area where.

Venotonics are medicines that are used to treat pathological changes in the venous wall. As a rule, the field of application of venotonics is varicose veins of the lower extremities, hemorrhoids, dilatation of the veins of the small pelvis, varicocele. Factors predisposing to the development of venous insufficiency are:

• hereditary predisposition to the development of the disease;
• work activities associated with prolonged sitting;
• excessive physical activity, weight lifting;
• excess weight;
• gender - chronic venous insufficiency is more common in women than in men.

Chronic venous insufficiency develops gradually over several years. For diseases associated with impaired venous tone, in the absence of therapy with venotonics and other means, the development of complications is characteristic:

1. Violation of tissue trophism, which, as a rule, leads to the formation of ulcers that are difficult to heal.
2. thromboembolic complications.
3. Bleeding arising from the affected vessels due to thinning of the vascular wall.
4. Inflammatory and infectious complications.
5. In order to avoid the development of complications, you should contact a specialist in a timely manner, who will prescribe the necessary therapy.

Medicines that have a venotonic effect can be classified as follows:

1. Venotonics containing saponins and flavonoids as active substances.
2. Rutoside-containing drugs.
3. Combined drugs with venotonic effect.
4. Synthetic venotonics.

Almost all venoprotectors are able to influence the muscle tone of the vascular wall and capillary permeability. These are the two main pharmacological effects on which the mechanism of action of drugs is based. Medicines with a venotonic effect are not able to completely cure varicose veins of the lower extremities, hemorrhoids, but their use significantly reduces the manifestation of symptoms such as pain, swelling, and discomfort in the area of ​​vascular damage.

Herbal venotonics

The first group - venotonics containing saponins and flavonoids, are absorbed into the systemic circulation and have a general effect on the body. Such venoprotectors include Detralex, Venarus, Vasoket, Phlebodia. Indications for the appointment of these venoprotectors are varicose veins of the lower extremities, acute hemorrhoids, impaired microcirculation.

Detralex is a venotonic containing a combination of diosmin and hesperidin. These substances are of natural origin. The venoprotector is prescribed for the treatment of symptoms of varicose veins of the lower extremities - pain, heaviness in the legs, a feeling of fullness, swelling, trophic ulcers, leg cramps. In addition, Detralex is very effective in exacerbation of hemorrhoids, including during pregnancy.

However, it is worthwhile to prescribe a venotonic during pregnancy with extreme caution and only in case of urgent need! Treatment of varicose veins and hemorrhoids during pregnancy should take place under the strict supervision of a doctor!

Detralex is not used in cases of hypersensitivity to the components of the drug. It is also not recommended to prescribe a venotonic to women during breastfeeding.

Rules for prescribing the drug:

1. To alleviate the signs of venous insufficiency of the lower extremities, venotonic is prescribed 2 tablets twice a day during meals. The course of treatment with venotonic can last up to 12 months.
2. Therapy of hemorrhoids in the acute period is carried out in a fairly short period of time. Detralex is prescribed 3 tablets in the morning and 3 tablets in the evening. within four days. Then the daily dose is reduced to 4 tablets per day - 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening for three days. The course of therapy for hemorrhoids is 7 days.

For Detralex, as a rule, the development of undesirable reactions is not characteristic. However, if the dosage of the drug is exceeded, dyspeptic disorders, diarrhea, nausea are possible. Sometimes a few days after the start of the use of Detralex, a headache, dizziness appears. After the abolition of Detralex or a decrease in dosage, these symptoms decrease or disappear altogether.

The approximate cost of Detralex for a pack of 60 tablets is 1900 rubles.

An analogue of Detralex is presented on the pharmaceutical market, which has a lower price - Venarus. The drug has an identical composition and is prescribed for the treatment of venous insufficiency of the lower extremities, acute hemorrhoids, including during pregnancy.

Phlebodia 600 is a venoprotector containing diosmin as an active ingredient. The drug reduces the extensibility of the venous wall, increasing vascular tone. At the same time, congestion is reduced. Also, venotonic improves the functioning of the capillary system, has an anti-inflammatory effect, which is important in the treatment of varicose veins and hemorrhoids.

The medicine is prescribed for the treatment of varicose veins of the lower extremities - the drug effectively relieves symptoms such as heaviness in the legs, swelling, pain. In addition, Phlebodia 600 is used to treat acute hemorrhoids.

Rutoside-containing products

The second group is preparations containing rutoside. These include Troxevasin, Troxerutin. Rutoside is a plant-derived substance that is obtained from tea leaves, Japanese sophora, fragrant rue, walnut. Natural venotonics of this group have been used for many years to relieve the symptoms of varicose veins, thrombophlebitis, diabetic vascular disease, and hemorrhoids. Venotonics containing rutoside have a good effect.

Troxevasin can be used during pregnancy in the second and third trimester, if the intended benefit to the woman outweighs the risk to the development of the fetus. Often, a venotonic during pregnancy is prescribed to improve blood circulation and lymph flow in the lower extremities, as well as to alleviate the symptoms of hemorrhoids. During breastfeeding, drugs of this group are not prescribed.

The course of application of a venotonic containing troxerutin is always long - more than a month. Assign the drug one capsule three times a day. From hemorrhoids, the medicine is used in the same way.

Venotonic contains a combination of tribenoside and lidocaine as an active ingredient. The drug reduces the permeability of the capillary wall and increases the tone of the vascular wall, and also has an analgesic and antipruritic effect.

Procto-Glivenol is used to treat external and internal hemorrhoids. The effect of the drug appears almost immediately. Procto-Glivenol is contraindicated in the first trimester of pregnancy, with liver failure and with hypersensitivity to venotonic components.

The cost of a package containing 10 candles is approximately 410 rubles.

Treatment of complications of varicose veins

With venous insufficiency complicated by thrombophlebitis, treatment with venotonics will not lead to the desired effect. Therefore, in such cases, drugs with anticoagulant action are used. One such remedy is Wessel Due F, which contains sulodexide as an active ingredient. Wessel Due F has a venoprotective, anticoagulant and antithrombotic effect.

The drug is available in the form of capsules and a solution for injection into a vein or muscle. Wessel Due F is used in case of deep vein thrombosis and other angiopathy. Treatment begins with the injection of the drug for two weeks, followed by the transition to oral administration. The general course of treatment is 2-2.5 months.

Wessel Due F can be used together with venotonics of plant and synthetic origin. Wessel Due F is not prescribed for reduced blood clotting, hemorrhagic diathesis, and during pregnancy in the first trimester.

The list of drugs used for varicose veins and hemorrhoids is quite large. In addition to drugs with a venotonic effect, pharmacies offer biological supplements and cosmetics that are used as adjuvants in venous insufficiency.

The price of Wessel Due F for 10 ampoules is approximately 1690 rubles.

Venotonics and varicose veins of the small pelvis

Currently, the expansion of the veins of the small pelvis among the female population is quite common. As a rule, this defect develops as a result of pregnancy. In addition, varicose veins of the pelvic veins can be the result of "sedentary" work, hard physical labor, various gynecological pathologies. Symptoms of varicose veins of the pelvic vessels are similar to signs of uterine prolapse:

• pain during intercourse;
• drawing pains during menstruation;
• feeling of pressure in the lower abdomen;
• increased urination.

If a similar clinical picture appears, it is necessary to consult a doctor who can differentiate the disease from other pathologies. With the prolapse of the uterus, in addition to these signs, there may be abundant discharge and prolapse of the neck of the organ, which is not typical for varicose veins. On the contrary, if in the clinical picture there is the appearance of venous nodules on the buttocks, labia and thighs, then most likely the pain is not caused by the prolapse of the uterus, but by the expansion of the veins of the small pelvis.

Varicose veins, unlike uterine prolapse, can be treated conservatively with the help of venotonics. In the case of uterine prolapse, as a rule, only surgical treatment is effective.

Venotonics in cosmetology

Another area of ​​application of venotonics is cosmetology. However, for the cosmetic purpose of venotonics, alternative medicine recommends the use. For example, on various women's sites you can find recommendations and advice on the use of a gel containing troxerutin for application under the eyes.

However, professional cosmetologists do not recommend the use of venotonics for facial skin, as they are not intended for this purpose and can cause irritation. In addition, the origin of the "circles" under the eyes has a completely different origin and is not associated with varicose veins.

The use of venotonics on the face may be justified in case of soft tissue injury, when drugs are used as a decongestant. In any case, if venotonics are used on the face, they should be applied under the eyes with extreme caution so as not to damage the delicate skin. Also, before applying the product, it is necessary to do a test for sensitivity.

Treatment with venotonics in modern medicine is quite common. There are different opinions of experts about the effectiveness of these drugs. Some are confident in their effectiveness, others allow their use only as an aid. In any case, all drugs should be used after prior consultation with a doctor who will choose the right dosage and frequency of use, taking into account all contraindications and the risk of complications.

Venotonics (phlebotonics) are drugs with a pronounced angioprotective effect. They improve the condition of the vascular wall and are actively used for prevention and treatment, which is manifested by the expansion of the veins, stagnation of venous blood, the release of fluid from the vessels into the tissues. Such a process is often accompanied by thrombosis, tissue degeneration, bleeding from the affected vessels. In the early stages of the pathology, patients are prescribed venotonics, and in advanced cases, surgical treatment is indicated.

Venotonic drugs compensate for the dysfunction of blood vessels by stimulating contractions of the smooth muscles of the vascular wall and reducing capillary permeability. Venotonics weaken, reduce inflammation and have a positive effect on peripheral circulation. These modern drugs have a complex effect and have a healing effect on all the blood vessels of the body. But they do not cure the disease completely, but only inhibit the pathological process or prevent its occurrence. Venotonics eliminate the symptoms of venous insufficiency and prevent the development of severe complications.

Pharmacological properties of drugs that provide:

• Strengthen and tone the vascular wall, reduce capillary permeability, make vessels more elastic and less brittle,
• Improve microcirculation in the surrounding tissues, prevent the formation of edema and blood clots,
• Have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect,
• Improve lymph flow
• Restore the work of the heart and blood vessels.

Strengthening and increasing the tone of the veins occurs in two ways: by reducing the smooth muscle fibers located in the vascular wall, as well as by reducing the permeability of capillaries and their blood supply. Most of the venotonic drugs have a polyvalent effect.

Currently, the pharmaceutical industry produces venotonics on a plant, synthetic and combined basis.

Classification

1. Venotonics based on flavonoids relieve pain, eliminate swelling and trophic disorders, treat convulsions and prevent the occurrence of acute hemorrhoidal attacks. This group includes tablet forms. Antistax, Diosmin, Venarus, Vasoket, Detralex.
2. Angioprotectors based on saponins, which have a pronounced hemolytic activity and are found in licorice, horse chestnut, hazel, grape leaves. Representatives of this group are drops for oral administration. "Aescusan", cream and gel "Venitan".
3. Rutosides have P-vitamin activity and stimulate the contraction of smooth muscle fibers of the vascular wall. They are found in buckwheat, tea, walnuts. Rutoside-containing drugs include: "Venoruton", "Troxerutin", "Troxevasin". These drugs are prescribed to patients with varicose veins, dermatitis, hemorrhoids. They have a capillary-protective and venotonic effect.
4. Synthetic drugs inhibit inflammatory mediators and suppress pain in venous pathology. These include Glivenol, Tribenozide.
5. Combined preparations-venotonics contain vegetable, semi-synthetic and synthetic components. They reduce signs of inflammation: pain, swelling, and also strengthen the walls of blood vessels. This group includes "Angionorm", "Doppelhertz", "Venorm".

The most effective venotonics

Medicines for oral use

The intake of venoprotective drugs should be accompanied by courses of physiotherapeutic procedures aimed at improving the blood supply to various organs and stimulating lymphatic drainage.

Ointments and suppositories

• Ointment "Troxevasin" has a protective effect on blood vessels. It contains the substance troxerutin, which has an antioxidant, firming, tonic, decongestant and anticoagulant effect. The drug is rapidly absorbed into the blood and accumulates in the body. Ointment "Troxevasin" is used to treat varicose veins, thrombophlebitis, heaviness in the legs, paresthesia.
• "Heparin ointment" has a direct anticoagulant effect, reduces inflammation and prevents thrombosis. When applied to the skin, it has a local anesthetic effect. "Heparin ointment" destroys pathogenic microbes and dissolves hemorrhoids. It not only eliminates the symptoms of pathology, but also completely cures hemorrhoids. Indications for use - thrombophlebitis, hemorrhoids, phlebitis, shins, elephantiasis, mastitis, injuries, subcutaneous hematomas.

• Ointment "Fleming"- homeopathic cream-gel, consisting entirely of natural ingredients. This is a fairly popular drug for hemorrhoids, which has analgesic, bactericidal and drying effects. As a result of its use, hemorrhoids heal, the walls of the anus become stronger, pathogenic bacteria die. With regular use of the ointment, cellular respiration improves, regeneration accelerates, the body's resistance increases, and venous congestion decreases.
• "Relief"- venotonic, which has a healing, local immunomodulating and hemostatic effect. It reduces pain and destroys pathogenic microbes. The main active ingredient of the drug sharply constricts blood vessels, reducing their permeability and relieving swelling. "Relief" regulates the outflow and inflow of blood in the area of ​​hemorrhoids and stops bleeding.

Varicose veins of the legs

The main use of venotonics is treatment and prevention. This is a fairly common vascular disease, from which every third woman suffers. Varicose veins cannot be cured completely, but you can only stop the further development of the pathology or prevent its occurrence. If the disease is in an advanced stage, drug therapy is unlikely to help. In such cases, resort to. Venotonics are prescribed in the preoperative and postoperative period to prevent severe complications.

Varicose veins of the legs are a disease with a congenital predisposition, which manifests itself over the years under the influence of provoking factors. Women suffer from varicose veins much more often than men, which is associated with the peculiarities of the hormonal status, pregnancy and childbirth, wearing high-heeled shoes and tight clothing.

To prevent the development of varicose veins, it is necessary to treat concomitant diseases in a timely manner, normalize weight, observe personal hygiene, and exercise. Venotonics can also be used for prevention, especially in cases where risk factors cannot be eliminated. They should be taken once a year for 2 or 3 months.

Haemorrhoids

A timely and adequate approach to the treatment of hemorrhoids ensures the complete elimination of clinical symptoms and prevents further progression of the pathology.
