DOBESIL CAP

About

Calcium Dobesilate is a venotonic and vasoprotective agent primarily used to improve microcirculation and reduce capillary permeability. It acts by strengthening capillary walls, reducing leakage, and improving blood flow in small vessels. This mechanism helps alleviate symptoms associated with various microcirculatory disorders. It is particularly effective in managing conditions characterized by increased capillary fragility and permeability, such as chronic venous insufficiency and certain forms of diabetic retinopathy. By restoring normal vascular function, Calcium Dobesilate helps to reduce edema, pain, and other discomforts, contributing to better tissue perfusion and overall vascular health. Its clinical application focuses on improving the integrity of the vascular endothelium and modulating platelet aggregation, thereby supporting the health of the circulatory system at a microvascular level.
