  • Heparin in combination with other drugs
    • Pharmacodynamics:

    Eszin is found in the seeds of horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum L., semen). It is a mixture of triterpene saponins. Eszin has an anti-inflammatory effect mainly in the initial phase of the inflammatory reaction, "sealing" the walls of the capillaries and thus reducing their permeability, increased with inflammation. Eszin also has a positive effect on the fragility of the walls of the capillaries and increases the tone of the venous walls when it is weakened. All this leads to a reduction in stagnation in the venous bed and accumulation of fluid in the tissues, preventing the appearance of edema.

    Heparin prevents blood clotting and, thus, thrombosis of blood vessels, and also has an anti-inflammatory effect.

    Dexpanthenol and allantoin improve the absorption of both drugs through the skin and, thus, enhance their therapeutic effect.
