From this article you will learn: what helps Troxevasin ointment or gel, with what pathologies and how to use this drug correctly.

Troxevasin is available in two forms: capsules and gel. Often the gel form in ordinary speech is called "ointment", which is incorrect from a pharmacological point of view. Ointment preparations of a denser structure, they are distinguished by slow absorption during application, which makes it difficult to use the ointment without a bandage. In order to quickly penetrate the skin, gel forms of medicines have been developed, Troxevasin gel is one of them.

In one gram of Troxevasin gel - 20 mg active substance Troxerutin. Another form - Troxevasin NEO additionally includes 300 IU (International Units) of Heparin and 50 mg of Dexpanthenol. All included in medications have a vascular restorative effect, reduce inflammation.

Indications for the use of the drug are presented in the table.

Most often, Troxevasin is prescribed vascular surgeons, traumatologists or oncologists.

The medicinal effect of the drug

To determine the mechanism of action of Troxevasin gel, you need to disassemble medicinal effect each of the components.

Therapeutic effect in diseases

Given the basic properties active ingredients Troxevasin, we can conclude: this is a drug that helps with disorders at the level of the small vascular network (blood capillaries). In more detail, the effect of the gel form can be considered on the example of pathologies in which the drug is prescribed.

Vascular pathology

The main clinical symptom complex in acute and chronic pathology vessels - tissue venous insufficiency caused by inadequate blood flow. Against this background liquid part blood (plasma) leaks through the thinned walls of crowded capillaries into the surrounding tissues.

AT initial stage the disease manifests itself as a feeling of heaviness in the lower legs after a normal load, there is a slight swelling and unexpressed pain syndrome, sometimes convulsions and impaired sensitivity (paresthesia). Without treatment, the disease progresses, complaints intensify. Increasing malnutrition of tissues, the skin and subcutaneous tissue thicken (dermatitis), and later ulcerate.

Troxevasin is most effective at the initial stage pathological process, with progression, it has an auxiliary function against the background of the main treatment. When applied to an area with impaired venous outflow, it is rapidly absorbed, penetrating to small vessels subcutaneous tissue.

The main effects of the drug:

1. Increasing the density of the capillary wall - reduces the amount of fluid leaking from the vessel into the tissue.
2. Wall seal - retains the elasticity of capillaries and prevents rupture against the background of overflow with blood.
3. The smoothness of the elastic and dense capillary wall prevents platelets from attaching to it and the formation of small clots, which lead to even greater circulatory disorders.

Realization of the main effects of the drug improves blood supply to tissues, reduces swelling and reduces pain. Especially in combination with specialized compression stockings(bandages, stockings).

Soft tissue pathology

The main manifestation of diseases of this group is inflammatory changes in the skin, subcutaneous tissue. The process is chronic lingering course and is characterized by pain varying degrees expressiveness.

Troxevasin in this group of diseases has:

• anti-inflammatory effect, reducing the activity of enzymes;
• inhibits the action of active oxygen molecules that are released against the background of the inflammatory process, thereby limiting the destruction of surrounding tissues;
• improves blood circulation in the affected area, reducing swelling.

The effect of the drug is manifested in a decrease in inflammation, and with it redness of the skin, pain and swelling of the tissues. The use in case of damage to the tissues surrounding the vein helps to reduce the risk of the transition of the inflammatory process to the vessels.

Soft tissue trauma

Traumatic injury characterizes the rupture of small vessels with an outpouring of blood into the surrounding tissues. In the area of ​​injury from the first minutes a local inflammatory process, the purpose of which is to destroy the consequences of tissue damage.

Troxevasin gel in this situation acts on all links of the pathological chain:

• improves blood supply by acting on the walls of capillaries;
• suppresses inflammation;
• Reduces swelling by preventing excess fluid from escaping capillaries.

The drug should be started in the first hours after the injury in order to reduce the amount of damage. Suppression of the active inflammatory process and a decrease in the release of fluid into soft tissues significantly reduces pain. And the strengthening of small vessels and the improvement of the blood filling of the damaged zone leads to an acceleration of recovery after an injury.

Application features

The gel form of the drug is for external use only. Troxevasin is applied to intact skin in the area of ​​the pathological process twice a day.

With chronic vascular pathology apply daily for up to 6 months if there is no deterioration or allergic reactions. In case of injury, the period of application is 7-10 days.

When choosing a gel form, you need to consider that in the initial stages varicose disease it is enough to use Troxevasin. And in case of chronic vascular pathology or acute trauma, Troxevasin NEO will have a greater effect.

Treatment with the drug is prescribed by a doctor. Deterioration of the condition during treatment or lack of effect is a reason for discontinuing the drug and re-consulting a specialist.

The 2% troxevasin gel is not endowed with a smell at all, but it has a golden yellow or yellowish-brown hue. One gram of this gel contains twenty milligrams active substance called troxerutin. Among the other constituent components of this medication, one can rank as distilled water, as well as carbomer, triethanolamine and some other excipients. This pharmaceutical agent in aluminum tubes, each of which contains forty grams of medication. Immediately, we note that this gel is intended directly for external use.

This drug is mainly used for various violations venous circulation. Influencing the human body, it not only relieves swelling and pain, but also strengthens the vascular wall, stimulates microcirculation, eliminates trophic disorders, and so on.

What are the indications for the use of troxevasin gel?
This pharmaceutical agent is used to treat both varicose veins and post-phlebitic syndrome, as well as chronic venous insufficiency, in which the patient complains of swelling and pain. This drug is also used in the fight against hemorrhoids, paresthesia lower extremities at night and upon awakening, retinopathy, pain and swelling after injuries. Dermatitis in chronic venous insufficiency, superficial thrombophlebitis, trophic ulcers and disorders in varicose veins veins - all these are also indications for the use of this gel. As aid appointed after prompt removal varicose veins or after vein sclerotherapy.

What are the contraindications to the use of troxerutin gel?
First of all, from the use of this gel in without fail should be abandoned by all patients suffering from chronic gastritis. It is not recommended to use it in case of a stomach ulcer or duodenum. In no case do not prescribe this drug to all those citizens who have had an increased sensitivity to any components this drug.

It is also worth noting the fact that this kind of gel can only be applied to intact areas of the skin. In no case should it be applied not only to the mucous membranes, but also to the eyes, as well as open wounds. And yet, it is very important to apply it with fairly light movements, and until it is completely absorbed. It is recommended to apply it twice a day - in the morning and in the evening.

Troxevasin ointment - effective angioprotective drug, which has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and venotonic activity. The drug is widely used as monotherapy and complex treatment varicose veins, hemorrhoids, venous insufficiency, varicose ulcers, herpes virus infection.

Composition and form of release

Operating principle

After applying to skin covering Troxevasin ointment is rapidly absorbed, leaving no traces on the epithelium. The agent is able to penetrate into the walls of blood vessels, while troxeturine accumulates mainly in the endothelium of the veins. The drug has an antioxidant effect, therefore it eliminates the oxidizing properties of oxygen, inhibits lipid peroxidation, and prevents the negative effects of hydroxyl radicals. As a result, Troxevasin helps protect the membrane of vascular cells from various damages.

The use of the drug leads to an increase in the tone of the veins and the resistance of erythrocytes to deformation, a decrease in capillary permeability. Troxevasin also has a pronounced anti-inflammatory, anti-edematous effect. This allows you to alleviate the course of many diseases, eliminate unpleasant symptoms.

pharmachologic effect

Before using any medicine, you must read its description. This will help to understand what Troxevasin ointment helps with, and in what cases it cannot be used.

Troxevasin is characterized by venotonic, anti-inflammatory, anti-edematous action. It protects blood vessels increased loads. With its use, there is a decrease in capillary fragility, a decrease in pain and inflammation. There is a normalization of microcirculation, which improves tissue nutrition.

The venotonic effect is to increase the tone of the vessels, which, when taking the drug, become smooth, elastic, and their permeability decreases. Due to the tonic effect, the blood flow returns to normal, and the blood does not stagnate in the limbs.

The drug belongs to angioprotectors, i.e. protects blood vessels from negative impact external environment, strengthens their walls. Troxevasin ointment for varicose veins increases the ability of blood vessels to withstand loads, including increased ones, without disturbing the functionality of the veins.

Due to the anti-inflammatory action, the inflammatory process localized in the vascular wall and located near the tissues is eliminated. Anti-edematous action is aimed at removing fluid from peripheral tissues. The main reason for their occurrence is the penetration there venous blood leaking from the vascular walls.

Troxevasin is also characterized by an antioxidant effect on blood vessels. Due to impact free radicals vascular walls lose their tone, become weak.

Troxevasin has a beneficial effect on small vessels(capillaries). It has the following effects:

• reduced fragility and permeability;
• strengthening the walls of capillaries;
• elimination of inflammatory processes;
• preventing the formation of blood clots by reducing the adhesion of platelets to the walls;
• elimination of pain;
• reduction of symptoms of venous insufficiency;
• elimination of edema.

Sometimes patients try to compare Troxevasin with heparin ointment in order to understand whether they can be interchanged and how they differ from each other. These drugs have different effects.

Note! It is not advisable to use heparin ointment in the early stages of varicose veins - this is the period of Troxevasin use. Heparin ointment is used in the event of complications, the formation of blood clots.

Indications

Ointment Troxevasin can be used for many problems. It may be prescribed for:

• varicose veins;
• superficial;
• venous insufficiency, which is manifested by swelling, pain, fatigue of the lower extremities;
• malnutrition of tissues provoked by venous insufficiency (manifestations of the violation include: pallor of the skin, bruising, slow healing with minor injuries);
• hemorrhagic diathesis;
• reduced sensitivity of the lower extremities after sleep;
• the appearance of cramps of the calf muscles at night;
• viral diseases in which vascular permeability increases;

The main category of patients who are prescribed the drug are men and women aged 18 to 50 years. However, if necessary, it can be used in younger patients. For children from 15 to 17, it can be prescribed for the treatment of bruises, to relieve swelling, with hematomas. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account age limit concerning children, indicated in the instructions: Troxevasin ointment is not recommended for use in a child under 15 years of age.

However, the reviews vary - we can definitely say that with hemorrhoids, Troxevasin ointment can only be part of a comprehensive treatment.

Varicose veins

With manifestations of varicose veins, the agent is applied by conducting light massage all limbs. Thanks to massage actions, blood circulation improves, blood delivery to tissues and muscles normalizes. In already advanced cases the use of the gel will not help, so it is better to start using Troxevasin when the very first symptoms of varicose veins occur: pain and fatigue in the legs, cramps. To increase the effect of the use of the drug will help its combination with the intake of vitamin C.

Note! Despite the encouraging reviews, it must be understood that the use of Troxevasin ointment will give an effect only at the initial stage of the disease.

Troxevasin quickly penetrates deep into damaged tissues and begins to work, so that bruises resolve faster and pain is eliminated. In the treatment of bruises and bruises, the ointment is applied 2-3 times a day for 5 days.

Swelling and bruising under the eyes

With age, bruises and bags under the eyes become real problem especially for women. Troxevasin can be successfully used to eliminate them. It has a light texture, thanks to which it easily penetrates inside, increasing the tone of capillaries, strengthening the walls of blood vessels. This action of it allows you to stop the outflow of fluid from the vessels, as a result of which edema forms under the eyes. Ointment should be applied thin layer on the area where there is no skin damage.

In addition, Troxevasin can also be used in the treatment. However, before using it for this purpose, you need to consult a doctor, since rosacea may be the result of major changes in the body.

Price

You can buy Troxevasin in pharmacies. On average, the cost of one package in Moscow is 200-250 rubles. The price of the drug Troxevasin NEO is slightly higher - from 350 to 450 rubles. The difference in price is due to the presence of heparin and dexpanthenol in the composition. As a result, Troxevasin NEO has an additional restorative and anticoagulant effect.

Analogues

Before purchasing a drug, patients usually find out how much the drug costs and whether there are cheaper analogues.

The most common analogue of Troxevasin is Troxerutin. It is cheaper in price. Despite the fact that this cheap remedy, it is no different from Troxevasin and gives exactly the same effect. Its more expensive substitute is gel.

Another remedy that is designed to prevent the formation of blood clots and the development of inflammation is Venopaginol. It is also characterized by a protective and venotonic action. Thanks to its use, vascular permeability returns to normal.

Also, instead of Troxevasin, Venoruton can be used. It is effective for swelling of the lower extremities, pain in the legs, varicose ulcers. Venoruton is used for hemorrhoids, trophic disorders.

You should not independently select analogues if Troxevasin was prescribed by a doctor, because the additional components that make up the drug may differ. Any substitutions should be discussed with a specialist.

If the state of health requires strengthening blood vessels in any part of the body, medicines from the category of venotonics are used. Troxevasin can also be counted among them.

Release form and composition

As a rule, varieties of products for external application are freely available in pharmacies. And Troxevasin capsules will be sold only after presentation of a prescription signed by a doctor.

The main therapeutic substance in all forms is troxerutin, a synthetic substitute for vitamin P (the bioflavonoid rutin, which is abundant in paprika, citrus fruits, tea leaves, apples, apricots, etc.), which can increase the strength of the walls of blood vessels.

Additional components in the gel / ointment:

• trolamine, which quickly anesthetizes the place of pathology;
• carbomer, which allows you to easily envelop and cover the desired area;
• benzalkonium chloride - for disinfection;
• disodium edetate dihydrate, which prevents platelets from sticking together;
• purified water as a natural solvent.

In capsules:

• titanium dioxide;
• gelatin;
• lactose;
• quinoline yellow dye;
• dye "Sunset";
• magnesium stearate.

Auxiliary substances are mostly designed to speed up the delivery of the main element to the problem area.

Pharmacological action, pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

Regardless of the form in which the drug is released, it has an angioprotective effect. It restores the course of blood even in the most small capillaries, removes swelling, normalizes the tone and metabolism in the vessels.

This contributes to the fact that inflammation disappears and the risk of blood clots is reduced.

"Troxevasin" has a positive effect on the vascular system:

• reduces oxidative processes in the affected area - the oxidation of adrenaline, ascorbic and hyaluronic acids;
• reduces swelling by activating the outflow of lymphatic fluid;
• reduces the permeability and fragility of capillary walls;
• prevents injury to the membrane of endothelial cells that cover inner surface vessels;
• activates microcirculation and microvascular perfusion.

In addition to all this, the drug also acts as an anti-inflammatory - at the local level and on a general scale.

In the case of varicose veins, the drug reduces the incidence of trophic ulcers, fights swelling and pain. With hemorrhoids does much more rare signs diseases in the form of bleeding, burning, itching, pain.

Does not break through the blood-brain barrier (the barrier between blood and tissue nervous system), in a small volume overcomes the placenta, in mother's milk appears to be at a minimum.

The process of glucuronization takes place in the liver, the remains of Troxevasin are mostly excreted with bile, and a little removed with urine.

Why appoint "Troxevasin"

Any disturbances in the flow of blood or inflammation in the vessels is the basis for the appointment of "Troxevasin".

Among them are the following conditions:

• haemorrhoids;
• cramps of the muscles of the legs, pestering at night;
• superficial thrombophlebitis;
• permanent venous insufficiency;
• varicose veins in the legs;
• leg swelling accompanying pregnancy;
• anus injury;
• trophic ulcers on the skin;
• stagnation of blood and lymph in the veins;
• postoperative prophylaxis on arteries or veins.

In addition, Troxevasin ointment / gel is a great helper if the goal is to prevent bruising and swelling on the skin due to a blow, or at least significantly reduce them. And also, with very careful use, the product removes dark circles and puffiness under the eyes.

Instructions for use and dosage

How to be treated with Troxevasin, the doctor will tell. There are cases, for example, venous insufficiency, when a specialist bases therapy on the use of several types of this remedy. The combination of Troxevasin tablets with ointment allows you to achieve the greatest hit healing substance in the lining of the venous canal.

Capsules "Troxevasin"

As the instructions for use prescribe, they need to be drunk one at a time twice a day, better in the morning and in the evening, during breakfast and dinner. The standard amount is 600 mg per day. However, if necessary, the doctor may decide to change the scheme - to increase both the dose and the number of doses.

When the course has provided results and completed, therapeutic effect fix by swallowing one pill a day for the next three to four weeks.

Ointment or gel for external use

"Troxevasin" in the form of an ointment / gel is intended for external use only.

In this case, there are conditions that must be met:

1. To get rid of darkened puffiness under the eyes, first thoroughly wash and dry your hands, remove makeup from your face, take the composition on your fingertip and apply it on problem areas very carefully so as not to get on the mucous membrane of the organ of vision. No need to rinse.
2. In case of blows, the injured place is treated by carrying out two procedures a day. At the same time, the Troxevasin gel or ointment is smeared with a thin layer, carefully, until completely absorbed, rubbing the composition into the skin and making sure that the product goes around open wounds, if any. It is impossible to crush and rub with force! Usually a few days are enough.
3. The same goes for varicose veins. Only the duration of the course differs - it lasts from a month to three.
4. "Troxevasin" is also used for herpetic eruptions on the face and genitals. However, it is capable of speeding up recovery processes only at the initial stage, since it is not able to stop the reproduction of pathogens.
5. With hemorrhoids, an indisputable condition is hygiene. The medicine can only be applied to a clean, dry body.

Exception - acute stage hemorrhoids. To heal wounds and eliminate inflammation, it can be prescribed only after carefully weighing the ratio of "benefit to the expectant mother - harm to the fetus."

Concerning breastfeeding, treatment with "Troxevasin" does not affect the baby in any way. By at least, no one recorded such moments. However, the mother should be careful, and, noticing that the child reacts negatively, stop treatment or temporarily transfer the baby to artificial nutrition.

drug interaction

As shown by numerous clinical trials, gel and ointment "Troxevasin" do not react to any medicines. This means that nothing can interfere with treatment, and they will not spoil it in the same way. healing effect other medicines.

As for the encapsulated form of this vascular protector (protector), it is possible to enhance its positive effect with the help of ascorbic acid.

But despite these features, it is better not to take risks and tell the doctor about all the drugs that are currently being taken.

Compatibility "Troxevasin" with alcohol

Speaking of interaction this tool in alcohol in laboratory conditions, the latter has no effect on the angioprotector, designed to protect the walls of blood vessels.

But when it turns into a "laboratory" human body, the situation is changing. These substances still remain neutral to each other, but alcohol harms the body as a whole and the venous bed in particular. So the healing effect is completely leveled, and the condition can become even worse.

These include:

• the first trimester of pregnancy (all forms of medication are prohibited);
• under three years of age;
• allergy to any of the ingredients of the composition;
• stomach ulcer (under the ban of the capsule);
• peptic ulcer of the duodenum 12 (capsules are prohibited);
• exacerbation of gastritis (you can not use the encapsulated form).

It is prudent to resort to medicine in the treatment of children from three to fifteen years of age, as well as patients with kidney failure. When carrying a child, after 12 weeks, an ointment / gel may be prescribed with the permission of the doctor.

No one is immune from the unpleasant secondary effect of this drug, although this rarely happens.

The use of capsules can provoke:

• skin rash and itching, hives;
• anaphylactic shock;
• dizziness;
• bad sleep;
• pain in the head;
• pain or discomfort in the stomach;
• ecchymosis (bleeding into the skin or mucous membranes);
• bouts of nausea and vomiting;
• diarrhea;
• asthma (due to intolerance to dyes);
• fast fatigue.

The use of "Troxevasin" in higher doses(this mainly concerns the form for ingestion) threatens with phenomena similar to side effect, but more pronounced.

Among the first:

• "Troxerutin";
• "Troxerutin-Zentiva";
• "Troxerutin-MIC";
• "Troxerutin-Vramed";
• "Venoruton" and others.

Substitutes for external use include:
