About Fibrovein 0.5%-5Mg/Ml Inj 2Ml

Fibrovein 0.5%-5Mg/Ml Inj 2Ml belongs to the group of medicines called sclerosants or sclerosing agents primarily used in treating varicose veins, large, medium or minor venules and spider veins.

The active component in Fibrovein 0.5%-5Mg/Ml Inj 2Ml is sodium tetradecyl sulphate. It works by scarring the vein, prompting blood to reroute through healthier veins. The collapsed vein is reabsorbed into the surrounding tissue and finally fades away.
