Composition:
1 tabl contains 250 mg or 500 of Calcium dendezeate monohydrate. The preparation contains lactose.
Action:
The drug improves venous circulation and protects against blood vessels. It reduces the permeability and increases the elasticity of the capillaries. It reduces platelet aggregation and plasma viscosity, thus improving tissue flow, which prevents stasis and thrombosis in venous vessels. It acts antagonistically to autakoid and neurohormones (hitsamina, bradykinina). It improves the "plasticity" of erythrocytes and inhibits their tendency to stick together. Increases lymphatic drainage, at the same time reducing their fragility and permeability. It reduces the flow of fluids from the blood to the tissues and reduces swelling. The maximum concentration in blood reaches 6 hours after administration. It binds to 20-25% of plasma proteins. It is excreted in the urine and faeces (mainly unchanged, 10% of the dose - in the form of metabolites). T0,5 is about 5 hours.
