PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacodynamics:
Roxet is a mixture of bioflavonoids containing at least 95% troxerutin. Troxerutin reduces increased capillary permeability and increases venous tone.
It antagonizes the vasodilatory effects of histamine, bradykinin, and acetylcholine, has anti-inflammatory effects on perivenous tissue, stabilizes capillary walls, and shows mild anti-aggregatory activity.
Troxerutin selectively accumulates in venular endothelium and penetrates deeply into the venous wall, reaching higher concentrations than in other tissues.
It protects cells from oxidative damage, reduces lipid peroxidation, and has antioxidant effects.
It also inhibits neutrophil activation, reduces erythrocyte aggregation and inflammation, and improves microcirculation and tissue perfusion.
The drug reduces edema and pain, improves tissue trophism, and alleviates symptoms of venous insufficiency.
Roxet has venotonic, capillaroprotective, anti-exudative, and hemostatic effects.
Pharmacokinetics:
After topical application, the active substance is released from the gel and penetrates the dermis within about 30 minutes and the subcutaneous tissue within 2–5 hours.
