Generic Name: diosmin + hesperidine

Brand Name: Daflon


Classifications:
Mechanism of Action: prolongs the vasoconstrictor effect of noradrenaline on the vein wall, even under warm and
acidotic conditions, increasing venous tone, and therefore reducing venous capacitance, distensibility, and stasis.
This increases the venous return and reduces venous hyperpressure present in patients suffering from chronic
venous disease (varicose veins).
