Price ≠ effectiveness:

A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.

Check the dosage form and strength:

Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.

Medicinal Benefits

TM Phob Ointment is a combination of two medicines: Heparin and Benzyl nicotinate. Heparin is an anticoagulant. It acts by breaking down the blood clot and preventing the formation of new blood clots. It also has anti-inflammatory properties and reduces swelling and inflammation. Benzyl nicotinate is a vasodilator and widens the blood vessels. It also promotes faster healing. Together, TM Phob Ointment can effectively improve the blood flow to the affected area and reduce the symptoms of superficial thrombophlebitis.
