Varicose disease of the lower extremities is getting younger every year. Increasingly, young girls and newly mummies have to deal with pathology. After all, it is the representatives of the weaker sex that are especially susceptible to the development of this disease. Varicose veins can be treated in various ways. Particularly widely used in recent years, drug therapy, namely the Russian analogue of Detralex. It is about him that we will discuss later. From the article you will learn about the name of the cheap analogue of Detralex, and how much it has. It is also worth mentioning how effective this medicine is in comparison with an expensive original.
Varicose disease and its treatment
Venous insufficiency of the lower extremities is a very insidious disease. Some patients already at a rather advanced stage do not feel any symptoms, while other people complain of the appearance of symptoms in the very early stages of the onset of the disease.
Varicose veins develop due to improper lifestyle, excessive load on the legs, in people with sedentary work, and so on. The causes of the pathology can be many. Also not the last role in the acquisition of varicose veins plays heredity.
The sooner the treatment of the pathology is started, the greater the chances of a positive outcome. In most cases, doctors prescribe only medications. However, in more difficult situations, laser treatment and sclerotherapy can be used. If such a correction is powerless, then a surgical operation is prescribed .
Russian analogue of Detralex
The only drug of similar composition is Venarus tablets. It is worth noting that the composition of these two products includes the same dosage of the same substances. That is why the analogue of Detralex Venus can be considered a completely identical medicine. The difference is only in the manufacturer.
How effective is the Detralex analogue?
This drug has a venotonic effect on the walls of blood vessels of the whole body. Pills increase blood flow and make the walls of the veins more elastic and resilient. The permeability of capillaries is also reduced.
In addition, the Russian counterpart of Detralex perfectly fights the symptoms of venous insufficiency: relieves swelling, improves lymph circulation, relieves blood vessels from stagnation and prevents thrombosis. In addition, the drug successfully fights the appearance of hemorrhoidal nodes in the anus. It is worth noting that some suppositories and ointments are not capable of exerting such an effect on the body as the Russian counterpart of Detralex.
How much is the medicine?
Now a few words about how much the Detralex analogue of Venus has. The price of the drug depends on the form of release. The product is available in packs of thirty and sixty tablets. It is worth noting that the French medicine "Detralex" is packaged in a similar way.
Have you been assigned an analogue of Detralex's Venus? The price will be more favorable when purchasing a large package. So, a pack of pills in the amount of sixty pieces costs from 900 to 1300 rubles. If you decide to purchase a small package, then it will cost you about 500-700 rubles.
What do patients say?
The opinions of people taking this tool are very diverse. Some patients were satisfied with this drug and say that it is very effective. Other patients note that the medicine had no effect, unlike the expensive French remedy.
Let's try to evaluate the effectiveness of the drug "Venarus".
Symptom relief
Patients say that the Detralex analogue for varicose veins begins to act immediately. On the first day of treatment, a positive effect is noted. So, most often the symptoms of venous insufficiency appear in the late afternoon, after a hard day. Typically, women feel pain and fatigue in their legs after prolonged wearing high-heeled shoes. Also, patients may notice swelling and cramps.
When treated with Venarus, all these unpleasant symptoms disappear. The medicine is effective within a few hours after administration. It dilutes the blood and facilitates the expulsion of fluid from the dilated veins. Thanks to this, patients feel lightness in the legs, note the absence of cramps and severity. Also, women say that after taking this medication they can spend high heels for a long time and not feel discomfort.
Impact on the veins
The “Detralex” analogue for varicose veins has not only the effect of pain relief. The drug perfectly fights the formation of blood clots and promotes resorption of existing nodes. Also, the medicine acts on the capillaries, increasing their elasticity. As a result of this, the appeared purple net may disappear, which is so often observed on the legs of the fairer sex.
In addition, the medicine increases the tone of the veins. The vessels become more elastic and restore their normal functions. It is worth recalling that the drug acts on the entire body of the patient. That is why the tablets help resolve small bruises and bruises that are on the human body.
Application for hemorrhoids
The Detralex analogue for hemorrhoids will be no less effective than the expensive original drug. So, patients note that already after the first pill they felt significant relief and elimination of symptoms.
The drug is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and dilutes it. Due to this, the elasticity of blood vessels is restored. In the initial stages of the disease, the Venus drug is very effective. Patients completely get rid of hemorrhoids, the disease does not return after treatment is stopped.
However, there are people whom treatment with this remedy did not help. Such patients say that the analogue of the French medicine is completely ineffective. Doctors say that the lack of action is associated with an advanced stage of the disease. Such patients will no longer benefit from medical treatment; they need to resort to surgical or minimally invasive interventions.
Drug action time
The drug "Venarus" has a rather long-lasting effect. So, after taking the tablets, about twelve hours should pass before the elimination half-life of the drug from the body. That is why the medicine is prescribed for use twice a day. The drug is excreted mainly with feces and urine.
Compatibility with other drugs
The drug "Venarus" is also good because it practically does not react with other medicines. Specialists allow the use of similar drugs in another form: gels, ointments, suppositories. However, you should carefully read the instructions and observe the prescribed dosage. Otherwise, some side effects may develop.
Why the Russian analogue may not work?
There is a group of patients who says that Venus tablets are completely ineffective. Why it happens?
If a person already has an advanced stage of varicose veins, the doctor must inform him of this. In these cases, alternative treatments are chosen. However, some patients, after reading positive reviews about the drug, begin to use this medicine on their own. In this case, a favorable effect is not observed. People say that the analogue of the French medicine is completely useless.
Are there any other analogues of Detralex?
Detralex's analogues in Russia are also represented by Venozol, which is available in the form of tablets, gel and ointments.
It is worth noting that this medicine is not as common as the Venus medicine. Moreover, its price is much lower. The cost of one package of gel is in the range from one hundred to three hundred rubles. Pills will cost you no more than five hundred rubles.
This product is made exclusively from natural ingredients. It has the same effect as Detralex tablets. However, it is prescribed very rarely. This is due to the lack of popularity with the drug.
It is worth noting that the tool is very effective in cases where the patient is not able to take pills. This often happens during pregnancy, while breastfeeding, or when there is intolerance to certain components. After application to the affected areas, the medicine is immediately absorbed and begins to act. Within a few hours, you will feel relief and a decrease in the symptoms of the disease.
Why do I need to choose analogues?
The French medicine Detralex has many side effects. So, patients complain that during treatment there is a pain in the stomach and digestion is disturbed. Pills can also cause nosebleeds.
The analogs of this medicine have an identical composition, but they often do not cause negative effects. That is why they are chosen when the Detralex is not suitable.
Summarizing
So, now you know the main analogues of the Detralex drug. It is worth saying that the medicine can be replaced with some other medicines that are similar in effect. These include Antistax, Troxevasin, Phlebodia and others. However, they cannot be called full analogues of Detralex, since the composition there is completely different.
Choose substitutes for expensive drugs wisely. Before starting treatment with one or another remedy, it is worth consulting with a specialist. Be healthy and never get sick!
