About Thrombomark Ointment

Thrombomark Ointment 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 Ointment 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 Ointment 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 Ointment 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 Ointment if you are allergic to Heparin, Benzyl nicotinate, or any other ingredients present in it.  Thrombomark Ointment 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.

FAQs

Thrombomark Ointment is a combination of two medicines: Heparin and Benzyl nicotinate. Heparin is an anticoagulant and acts by dissolving the existing clots and preventing the formation of new blood clots. Benzyl nicotinate is a vasodilator (dilates the blood vessels). It improves blood flow to the affected area. Together, Thrombomark Ointment can effectively reduce the symptoms of superficial thrombophlebitis such as pain and inflammation.

Thrombomark Ointment is not recommended for the treatment of skin ulcers or open wounds. It can treat superficial thrombophlebitis, a condition characterized by pain and inflammation due to clot formation in the veins beneath the skin surface.

Thrombomark Ointment may cause application-site reactions such as redness, itching, burning sensation, and irritation. These side-effects are usually mild and go away without any treatment. However, if any of these side-effects persist or get worse, consult a doctor immediately.

It is advised not to use Thrombomark Ointment on broken skin and open wounds and make sure the medicine doesn’t come in contact with the eyes, nose, mouth, or genital area. It may increase skin sensitivity to the sun, so avoid prolonged sun exposure, tanning beds, and sun lamps. Wear protective clothing if you are going outdoors in the daytime.

Thrombomark Ointment contains heparin, which is an anticoagulant (blood thinner). The use of heparin before surgery can lead to prolonged bleeding. However, this effect is seen mostly when heparin is taken in the tablet or injection form. So, it is recommended to inform your doctor before using Thrombomark Ointment ointment if you are undergoing surgery.
