05.1 "Pharmacodynamic properties -
Pharmacotherapeutic group: drugs for topical use, for joint and muscle pain.
ATC code: M02AC.
Escin acts on the vascular walls. In case of increased permeability due to inflammation, it reduces exudation, limiting the extravasation of liquids into the tissue and accelerating the absorption of the existing edema. The mechanism of action is based on the modification of the permeability of the affected capillary openings. Furthermore, escin increases the resistance of the capillaries, has an anti-inflammatory effect and improves microcirculation.
Diethylamine salicylate has remarkable analgesic properties. It is easily absorbed by the skin and develops its analgesic action in depth on the treated area. The anti-inflammatory action of diethylamine salicylate reinforces the anti-inflammatory action of aescin, eliminating the causes of the disease.
05.2 "Pharmacokinetic properties -
It has been shown in various animal species and in humans that the absorption of aescin after topical application is very low (
At the point of application, concentrations are clearly measurable in the subcutaneous area and in the underlying musculature. Aescin is not detectable in human blood and urine.
According to the experiments carried out on animals and the literature available on the subject, salicylates are more absorbed. However, the values found in the blood after topical treatment for therapeutic purposes do not fall within the toxicity range.
