Indications & Uses
Diohes DS is indicated for:
Pharmacology
Diosmin and Hesperidin is a phlebotonic drug and a vascular protecting agent. It reinforces venous tone by prolonging the activity of parietal noradrenaline. This decreases venous capacitance, venous distensibility, and venous emptying time. Diosmin and Hesperidin also protects the microcirculation by fighting the processes that damage it. It combats venous inflammation by lowering leukocyte activation, which reduces the release of inflammatory mediators, mainly free radicals and prostaglandins. As a result, it normalizes capillary permeability and strengthens capillary resistance. Diosmin and Hesperidin acts on the lymphatic system too, improving lymphatic drainage by increasing lymph flow and lymph oncotic pressure.

Cautions & Contraindications
Warnings & Precautions
If hemorrhoidal symptoms have not cleared within 15 days, the patient should seek medical advice. Diosmin (up to 900 mg/day) has been given to a small number of breast cancer patients with lymphedema following surgery and nodal irradiation; arm swelling was reduced, but there was no effect on the cancer itself. Animal studies and more than 20 years of clinical use in Europe have shown no evidence of carcinogenicity or mutagenicity when the components of Diosmin & Hesperidin are used as recommended. Nonetheless, as a precaution, Diosmin & Hesperidin is not recommended for patients with a history of cancer, since no specific studies have been carried out in this group.
Contraindications
Chronic venous insufficiency and its complications should be diagnosed by a physician, who should also monitor treatment. This product must not be used by anyone who is hypersensitive to any of its ingredients.
