From the permeability of the vascular walls depends not only the normal flow of blood, but also the state of internal organs. Damage to the capillaries is always accompanied by bleeding of varying degrees of intensity, which often have unfortunate consequences. To prevent and stop the outpouring of biological fluids, Etamzylate is developed - tablets are used in many medical fields involving frequent surgical interventions.
What are sodium etamzilate tablets?
Described medicine belongs to the group of antihemorrhagic drugs. The active ingredient, sodium etamzilate, produces the effect of activation of thromboplastin formation. Therefore, these tablets improve the microcirculation of the biological fluid and normalize the permeability of the vascular walls.
It is worth noting that Etamsilate, like its direct analogue Dicinon, does not provoke the formation of thrombi and the development of hypercoagulation processes.
From what tablets Dicinon and Etamsilat appoint or nominate?

Contraindications to the preparation Etamsylate in tablets
The list of diseases in which an antihemorrhagic remedy can not be used is small. It includes increased sensitivity to the active component, as well as thrombosis and thromboembolism, even if these pathologies occur in the anamnesis.
In the presence of hemorrhages, provoked by treatment with anticoagulants, Etamsilate is allowed to be taken only in combination with other identical drugs.
