Pharmacological properties

Troxevazin gel is a blend of bioflavonoids that contains at least 95% troxerutin. Troxerutin accumulates selectively in the endothelial layers of venules, penetrates deeply into the subendothelial layer of the venous wall, and the concentration is higher than in neighboring tissues. The drug prevents damage to cell membranes caused by oxidation.

The antioxidant effect is manifested in the reduction and elimination of the oxidative properties of oxygen, inhibition of lipid peroxidation, protection of the vascular endothelium from the oxidative action of hydroxyl radicals. Troxerutin reduces the increased permeability of capillaries and increases the tone of the veins. The cytoprotective effect is manifested in the inhibition of neutrophil activation and adhesion, a decrease in erythrocyte aggregation and an increase in the resistance of erythrocytes to deformation, and a decrease in the release of inflammatory mediators.

Increases venous-arterial reflux, prolongs venous refill time, improves microcirculation and microvascular perfusion.

The action of Troxevazin is aimed at reducing edema, pain, improving trophism and eliminating various pathological disorders associated with venous insufficiency.
