About Dezoflav Tablet 18's

Dezoflav Tablet 18's belongs to the group of medicines that fall under the anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory medications category. It is primarily used to treat varicose veins (twisted and enlarged veins), lymphedema (swelling of arms and legs), and acute and chronic haemorrhoids (swollen veins of the lower rectum and anus). In addition, Dezoflav Tablet 18's also acts as an antioxidant promoting healing. 

Dezoflav Tablet 18's contains diosmin and hesperidin; both have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Collectively, it works by blocking the chemical messengers (prostaglandins, thromboxane A2) responsible for causing inflammation (swelling), improving blood flow to blocked veins, and reducing inflammation in the swelled-up veins. As a result, the pain and swelling are reduced when the blood flows adequately to the blocked veins. This helps us carry out our daily activities, restoring normal functions.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Varicose veins: When the veins become enlarged and twisted, they are called varicose. The most commonly affected veins are those of the legs as walking and standing increase pressure on the veins of the lower body. It can lead to pain and discomfort, and sometimes more severe complications.

Lymphedema: It generally refers to swelling in the legs and arms (sometimes one and sometimes both). It occurs when the lymph nodes are damaged or removed as a part of cancer treatment. As a result, the lymphatic system is blocked, which prevents fluid in the lymph from draining out. Hence, the legs and arms swell up.

Haemorrhoids: When the lower rectum and anus veins are swollen, it is known as haemorrhoids or piles. Haemorrhoids can be internal (inside the rectum) or external (under the skin around the anus). It can be treated sometimes by simple lifestyle changes and home treatments. The exact cause for it is not known.
