1. What is Calcium dobesilate Galena and what is it used for

The active substance of the medicine is calcium dobesilate. The site of action of calcium dobesilate is: the endothelium of blood vessels, the walls of veins, and lymphatic vessels.

The medicine also reduces the permeability of lymphatic vessels and increases lymphatic drainage, resulting in reduced swelling.

Indications for Use

  • Microangiopathies, especially diabetic retinopathy,
  • Clinical symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency of the lower limbs (pain, muscle cramps, paresthesia, swelling, skin changes associated with venous stasis),
  • As an adjunct in superficial thrombophlebitis of the lower limbs,
