Flavonoid (derivative of routine), has P-vitamin activity; has venotonic, angioprotective, anti-inflammatory and anti-edematous action; reduces permeability and fragility of capillaries.
Pharmacodynamic properties are associated with the participation of trouxerutin bioflavonoids in oxidation-reduction processes and inhibition of hyaluronidase.By suppressing hyaluronidase, troxerutin stabilizes the hyaluronic acid of cell membranes and reduces their permeability. It has antioxidant activity, which prevents oxidation of ascorbic acid, adrenaline and lipids. In addition, it reduces the permeability and fragility of capillaries, prevents damage to the basal membrane of endothelial cells when various factors influence it. Troxerutin reduces exudative inflammation in the vascular wall, reducing the adhesion of platelets to its surface. Inhibits aggregation and increases the degree of erythrocyte deformation.
With chronic venous insufficiency troxerutin reduces the feeling of heaviness and swelling in the legs, reduces the intensity of pain and seizures, improves trophic tissue. Troxerutin facilitates the symptoms associated with hemorrhoids (pain, exudation, itching, bleeding).
Due to the effect on the permeability and resistance of the capillary walls troxerutin helps slow the progression of diabetic retinopathy. The influence of troxerutin on the rheological properties of blood contributes to the prevention of microthrombosis of the retinal vessels.
