Setrol 2Ml Pack Of 2 Injections

Setrol Injection is used under the supervision of a trained doctor to treat varicose veins, spider veins and certain venous malformations in adults.

Uses of Setrol Injection are:

• Varicose Veins: Closes and shrinks enlarged, twisted veins using a technique called sclerotherapy.
• Spider Veins: Reduces the appearance of small, dilated surface veins.
• Venous Malformations: Helps manage certain venous malformations and enlarged venules.

Here's how you should go about using Setrol Injection:

• It is supposed to be administered only by a healthcare professional who is trained in sclerotherapy techniques.

• The injection will be given directly into the vein that needs treatment

• You should wear compression stockings as advised by your doctor to promote healing and prevent darkening of the skin.

• Keep the treated area away from sun exposure to reduce chances of skin darkening.

Setrol Injection is administered intravenously.

Setrol Injection contains sodium tetradecyl (30mg) which works on the body in the following ways:

• Endothelial Damage: Sodium tetradecyl irritates and destroys the inner lining of the vein. This causes damage to the endothelium - the thin layer of cells lining the interior surface of blood vessels.

• Thrombosis: Sodium tetradecyl promotes thrombosis - the formation of a blood clot within the vein. This process helps to block off the problematic vein.

• Sclerosis: Sodium tetradecyl leads to sclerosis or hardening of the vein. Over time, this causes the vein to collapse and gradually fade away as it is reabsorbed into surrounding tissue.

• Keep Setrol Injection at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.

• Protect it from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain its effectiveness.

• Do not freeze this medicine.

• Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children.

• Regularly engage in low-impact exercises like walking or swimming. These activities can help improve blood flow, which is especially beneficial if you're managing varicose veins or other venous malformations.

• Try to elevate your legs when sitting or resting. This can aid in reducing swelling and discomfort associated with enlarged veins in your legs and feet.
