Thrombotas Ointment 20Gm

Thrombotas Ointment is used as a topical treatment to relieve symptoms of inflammation and clot-related conditions in veins close to the skin.

Uses of Thrombotas Ointment are:

• Superficial Thrombophlebitis: Helps reduce pain, redness, and swelling in inflamed surface veins.
• Bruises and Haematomas: Helps reduce localised swelling and supports the resolution of bruises and blood collections under the skin.
• Varicose Vein Symptoms: Eases discomfort, heaviness, and swelling associated with varicose veins.

To use Thrombotas Ointment properly, follow these instructions:

• Start by making sure that the area of skin you will apply the ointment to is clean and dry.

• Use soap and water to clean this area, then pat it dry with a clean towel.

• Next, apply Thrombotas Ointment using your fingertip or a clean cotton swab.

• The amount you use will depend on the size of the affected area.

• Gently massage the ointment into your skin until it's fully absorbed.

• After applying, remember to wash your hands. This prevents the spread of any infection.

• Check package for further details.

Thrombotas Ointment is applied topically.

Thrombotas Ointment contains three active ingredients:

• Heparin (50 IU): This anticoagulant works by inhibiting the formation and growth of blood clots. It enhances the activity of antithrombin III, a natural anticoagulant in your body, preventing new clots from forming and existing ones from growing.

• Benzyl Nicotinate (2 mg): As a vasodilator, this ingredient works by increasing blood flow in the affected area. The increased circulation helps reduce inflammation and promote healing.

• Sorbic Acid (1.97 mg): While it doesn't directly influence clotting or vasodilation, sorbic acid acts as a preservative in this formulation helping maintain the medicine's effectiveness over time.

  The synergistic action of benzyl nicotinate and heparin improves blood flow, reduces inflammation, and promotes the breakdown of blood clots in the affected area.

• Store Thrombotas Ointment in a cold place.

• Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Always keep the container tightly sealed to maintain the product's effectiveness.

• Ensure it is kept out of reach of children for their safety.

• If you're using Thrombotas Ointment for varicose veins or related conditions, elevating your legs whenever possible can help improve blood circulation and reduce swelling.

• Incorporate a diet rich in fibre and low in salt to prevent constipation, which can exacerbate varicose veins. This could include consuming more fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
