3. Aspirin / Ibuprofen (Symptomatic Relief)

- Does not treat the underlying venous problem
- Aspirin also acts as a mild blood thinner (reduces clot risk)

Important Notes
- Tablets alone are not a cure for varicose veins - they relieve symptoms but do not remove existing varicose veins. Procedures (laser, sclerotherapy) are needed for definitive treatment.
- Compression stockings are recommended alongside any tablet therapy.
- Consult a doctor before starting any tablet, especially if you are pregnant, have kidney/liver disease, or take blood thinners.

- Daflon 500 / Venixxa / Detralex are all MPFF (Diosmin + Hesperidin) products - the most clinically studied class for chronic venous insufficiency (CVI).
- Venostasin / Venaforce (Horse Chestnut extract) is the best natural/herbal alternative with good evidence for leg swelling.
- Calcium Dobesilate is commonly used in Asia and Europe, especially when CVI coexists with diabetes.
- Rutin is widely available OTC as a gentler option for capillary fragility and mild symptoms.
- Aspirin/Ibuprofen only address pain and swelling - they do not improve vein tone or prevent progression.
Important: None of these tablets physically remove varicose veins. They manage symptoms and slow progression. For definitive treatment, procedures like laser ablation or sclerotherapy are needed. Always consult a doctor before starting any medication.
