The active ingredient in this preparation is a dry extract of horse chestnut seeds (Hippocastani seminis extractum siccum), which contains escin. This substance increases the tone of venous vessels, supporting the proper functioning of the venous system and alleviating symptoms associated with venous insufficiency.
Esceven tablets should be taken regularly, according to the recommended dosage. However, if there is no improvement after 14 days of use or if the patient feels worse, they should see a doctor. The drug manufacturer does not specify how long after starting treatment the first effects of the medication will appear. However, it is important to remember that improvement does not always occur immediately. In cases of chronic venous insufficiency, treatment often requires consistency and the simultaneous implementation of lifestyle recommendations.
Esceven tablets are available over the counter, but they are not suitable for all patients. This medication should not be used in cases of allergy to dry horse chestnut seed extract or any of the drug’s ingredients, nor in patients with renal insufficiency, children under 12 years of age (there are no studies confirming the safety of this medication in this patient group), pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers.
Esceven tablets should be taken regularly according to the following schedule: 1 tablet 3 times a day after meals. If you miss a dose, do not take a double dose to make up for the missed tablet. However, if your symptoms do not improve or worsen after 14 days of regular use, you should consult a doctor.
