About Thrombomark Cream 20 gm

Thrombomark Cream 20 gm belongs to the group of medications called ‘blood-related agents' used in the treatment of superficial thrombophlebitis. Superficial thrombophlebitis is a condition in which there are inflammation and swelling just below the surface of the skin due to the presence of a blood clot. This condition is usually formed in the legs or pelvic region. It is a short-term condition and symptoms include pain and tenderness in the affected area.

Thrombomark Cream 20 gm is a combination of two medicines: Heparin and Benzyl nicotinate. Heparin is an anticoagulant and dissolves the blood clot. It also prevents the formation of new blood clots. Benzyl nicotinate is a vasodilator. It acts by widening the blood vessels and also improves skin oxygenation. Thrombomark Cream 20 gm collectively can increase the blood flow to the affected area, thereby reducing the pain and inflammation.

You should take this medicine as advised by your doctor. The common side-effects of Thrombomark Cream 20 gm are skin irritation, redness, burning sensation, and itching. These side-effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if any of these side-effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor immediately.

Do not take Thrombomark Cream 20 gm if you are allergic to Heparin, Benzyl nicotinate, or any other ingredients present in it.  Thrombomark Cream 20 gm is not recommended for use in open wounds, infected wounds, and skin ulcers and should be used with caution in people with blood disorders, sensitive skin, or undergoing surgery. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
