Calcium dobesilate |
Calcium dobesilate is a regulator of capillary functions. Calcium dobesilate acts on the capillary walls by regulating its impaired physiological functions – increased permeability and decreased resistance. It increases erythrocyte flexibility, inhibits platelet hyperaggregation and, in diabetic retinopathy, it reduces plasma and blood hyperviscosity, thus improving blood rheological properties and tissue irrigation. |
