About Beparine Cream

BENZYL NICOTINATE+HEPARIN 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.

BENZYL NICOTINATE+HEPARIN 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. BENZYL NICOTINATE+HEPARIN collectively can increase the blood flow to the affected area, thereby reducing the pain and inflammation.
