Flebodia is an angioprotective drug, which is used quite actively in modern medicine. The main active ingredient in the medicine is diosmin. And as additives, talc, microcrystalline cellulose, stearic acid and colloidal silicon dioxide are added to the formulation.
What is the purpose of the medicine Flebodia and its analogues?
These drugs have a powerful phlebotenic effect. Simply put, medicines are intended to reduce the extensibility of veins, increase their tone, prevent venous stasis.

- improve microcirculation;
- reduce the permeability of capillaries, thereby increasing their resistance;
- normalize oxygen diffusion;
- have anti-inflammatory effect;
- stop the production of potentially dangerous free radicals;
- contribute to enhance the vasoconstrictive effect of adrenaline .
Phlebodia and analogues of this preparation are shown for:
- venous or lymphovenous insufficiency;
- varicose dilatation of the subcutaneous veins on the legs;
- hemorrhoids;
- increased fragility of capillaries;
- disturbances of microcirculation;
- The feeling of heaviness and tingling in the legs, even when they are in a horizontal position.
Almost all modern medicines are quickly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and act promptly. Active substances are evenly distributed across all layers and walls of veins, while practically not accumulating in vital organs. And for excretion they are mostly responsible for the kidneys.
