Description

Dioflan (heparin) gel 1000 40 g. tube №1

Ingredients:

Each 1g of gel contains 1000 IU of heparin sodium as the active ingredient.

Dosage:

Apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected area 2-4 times daily.

Indications:

Dioflan gel is indicated for the treatment of superficial thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, and hemorrhoids.

Contraindications:

Do not use Dioflan gel if you are allergic to heparin or any other ingredients in the gel.

Directions:

Clean and dry the affected area before applying the gel. Gently massage the gel into the skin until fully absorbed.

Scientific Evidence:

Heparin, the active ingredient in Dioflan gel, is a well-known anticoagulant that works by inhibiting the formation of blood clots. Studies have shown that topical heparin formulations can effectively reduce inflammation and pain associated with superficial thrombophlebitis and varicose veins.

Additional Information:

Dioflan gel is formulated for topical use and is generally well-tolerated. However, it is always recommended to perform a patch test before widespread application to check for any allergic reactions. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

Research has indicated that heparin-based gels, like Dioflan, can provide symptomatic relief in conditions where inflammation and clot formation play a significant role. Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of heparin gels in improving pain and reducing swelling in patients with superficial thrombophlebitis.
