of Horse Chestnut is related
to the composition of biologically active agent – aescinum,
which has an expressed venotonous action. Extract of Horse Chestnut raises a tone of venous
vessels, improves venous blood circulation. At the same time, reduces
conductivity of capillaries’ walls, improves microcirculation, has the
expressed anti-inflammatory effect. Esculin stimulates antithrombotic activity
of serum, increases production of anti-thrombin in the reticuloendothelial
system of vessels. Esculin reduces viscosity of blood. Extract of Horse
Chestnut slows
down ability of blood clotting.

action during external use.
Extract
of Gotu Kola has an angioprotective action, greatly improves
microcirculation and capillary tonus, it has anti-exudative and reducing action
of capillary permeability. Reduction of vascular
permeability prevents transfer of protein
molecules, electrolytes and water in the adjacent tissues, and as a result of
it venous insufficiency symptoms are decreased: swelling of the lower
extremities, feeling of heaviness, pain and itching. Improves trophism of the connective
tissue, ensures its integrity at the expense of the improvement of elasticity
of veins. Gotu Kola stimulates the proteolytic activity of macrophagic enzymes
and makes liquidation of the main causative reason of edema during venous
insufficiency.
