Preferred Label : Daflon 500;
NCIt definition : Daflon 500 is a phlebotonic drug and a vascular protecting agent. It is reported to
improve microcirculation in chronic venous insufficiency by improvement of venous
tone, inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, protection against free radicals, activation
of the complement system, and increased lymphatic drainage. This results in reduced
venous capacitance, distensibility, and emptying time; reduced capillary permeability;
and increased capillary resistance. (Angiology 1994 Jun;45(6):419-2);
