About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Lioton 500 Gel contains Heparin sodium at a concentration of 500 IU per gram, a well-established anticoagulant agent used topically to prevent and treat superficial thrombophlebitis, hematomas, and localized venous congestion. The gel formulation facilitates rapid absorption through the skin, delivering the active ingredient directly to the affected area to inhibit thrombin activity and reduce blood clot formation. Lioton 500 Gel is indicated for the management of conditions such as bruises, sprains, varicose veins, and post-traumatic edema, promoting the resolution of inflammation and accelerating tissue repair. Its anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory properties help improve microcirculation, thereby alleviating pain and swelling associated with venous disorders and soft tissue injuries. The gel is typically applied two to three times daily to the affected area, ensuring a thin, even layer is gently massaged until fully absorbed. It is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to heparin or any gel components, active bleeding disorders, or severe thrombocytopenia. Caution is advised in patients with bleeding risks or those receiving systemic anticoagulant therapy. Lioton 500 Gel offers a non-invasive, localized treatment option, minimizing systemic exposure while effectively managing symptoms related to superficial venous and soft tissue conditions.

About Heparin
Heparin is an anticoagulant medication used to prevent and treat blood clots in conditions such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. It works by inhibiting the clotting factors in the blood, thereby reducing the risk of clot formation. Heparin is often administered in hospital settings under medical supervision. In summary, it is crucial for managing thromboembolic disorders.
How It Works
Heparin activates antithrombin III, which inhibits thrombin and factor Xa, preventing the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin and thus inhibiting clot formation.
