About Varisil Capsule

Varisil Capsule belongs to the group of medicines known as 'vasoprotective', primarily indicated in the treatment of hemorrhoids (piles), varicose veins (enlarged, swollen, and twisted veins), and diabetic retinopathy (damage to light-sensitive the black part of the eye). Hemorrhoids also known as piles, is a medical condition that happens when veins present in the anus and rectum area(the last part of the large intestine that ends up in the anus) get swell and become painful. The varicose vein is a condition in which veins (a type of blood vessel) become large, and swollen especially in the feet and legs. Diabetic retinopathy is a health condition that happens when the retina's blood vessels (the black part of the eye) get damaged in persons with diabetes.

Varisil Capsule contains 'Calcium Dobesilate' that improves blood flow in veins (a type of blood vessel) by decreasing the thickness of blood and also relaxes the muscles of affected part of the body(legs, feet, anus, eyes) by reducing the leakage and fragility of blood vessels. In this way, it provides relief in piles, varicose veins, and diabetic retinopathy.

Take Varisil Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. You are suggested to take Varisil Capsule as long as your doctor has prescribed it after checking your medical condition.  In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as fever, gastrointestinal disorders, skin reactions, arthralgia(joint pain), and agranulocytosis (lower white blood cell count). Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Avoid or limit the intake of alcohol while taking Varisil Capsule . To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Varisil Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Do not exceed the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor. Consult your doctor before taking Varisil Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; your doctor will prescribe you Varisil Capsule only if the benefits outweigh the risks. Varisil Capsule causes drowsiness, so drive with caution. Varisil Capsule should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Inform your doctor about your health condition and medications before taking Varisil Capsule to rule out any side effects. Dosage should be reduced in persons dealing with kidney disease.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Eat a healthy and balanced diet, and make sure you sleep at least 8 hours a day for a speedy recovery.
  • Try to include heart-healthy omega 3 fatty acid containing food drinks in your daily diet. You can also use low-fat cooking oil like olive oil, soybean oil, canola oil, and coconut oil.
  • Try to fill half your food plate with fruits and veggies. Bananas and yoghurt taken with Varisil Capsule may help protect your gut lining.
  • Opt for food and drinks high in Omega 3 fatty acid to get relief from pain, swelling, and inflammation. Omega 3 fatty acid-enriched foods include flaxseeds, walnut, soybean oil, salmon, and tuna fish if you prefer non-veg.
  • Prefer more whole foods and grains instead of processed ones. Limiting starch may also help decrease inflammation.
  • Avoid intake of processed foods, foods high in sugar and fat, as these may cause inflammation.
