Pinodin TX Plus Tablet 10's is a haemostatic agent. It contains ''Proanthocyanidin, Polypodium Leucotomos extract and Tranexamic acid''. It is used to relieve the symptoms of constricted varicose veins by promoting dilation or widening of blood vessels and easing the flow of blood in the right direction. The anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties of plant-derived leucotomos and polypodium also help ease the major symptoms of varicose veins such as itchiness, swelling, heaviness, redness and pigmentation. Tranexamic acid is an antifibrinolytic agent, which blocks the binding of plasminogen and plasmin to fibrin. Fibrin is a substance in the body that forms clots and helps plug wounds during bleeding. This action prevents the dissolution of tight fibrin clots into fluid blood components.
