Description
Venoruton forte contains O-(β-hydroxyethyl)-rutoside, which contributes to the normalization of the function of the smallest blood vessels (capillaries) by increasing the resistance of their walls and reducing their permeability. In patients suffering from varicose veins or certain other leg vein disorders, these small vessels lose too much water, causing the ankles to swell.
Venoruton forte brings relief by reducing this swelling and relieving the symptoms commonly associated with it, such as aching, tired or heavy legs and cramps. On the recommendation of a doctor, pharmacist or druggist, Venoruton forte can also be used to treat hemorrhoids. In the case of haemorrhoids, Venoruton forte causes rapid and sustained swelling of the mucous membrane of the anus and relieves symptoms such as pain, weeping, itching and bleeding.
On the recommendation of a doctor, the preparation can also be used in the event of side effects after radiation therapy and certain diseases of the retina (e.g. diabetic retinopathy).
