Practice of prescribing and using
Reviews of doctors and patients who managed to buy Phlebotenz Plus and try it in practice.
Phlebotens became my salvation. Usually after a long trip or a shopping trip, the legs were like shackles. The same was observed when the weather changed. I even had to quit training in the gym, because it was impossible to perform half the exercises. I did not drink the pills, but used them when there was a need - with symptoms. The relief came within an hour. And soon all has absolutely passed.
Hope With
During pregnancy, I got swelling on my legs. My legs just tired. My doctor prescribed a diet and appointed Phlebotens.
At first I was surprised - what kind of diet can there be in the situation. However, soon the swelling began to gradually decrease, and after I drank the entire course, I did not recall more about this problem.
Evgenia Sycheva
Varicose diseases are a real scourge of modern people. As a practicing therapist with 25 years of experience, I can say that the lower age threshold of patients suffering from such diseases has fallen to 25-30 years in recent decades. Most leading experts attribute this fact to a sedentary lifestyle.
In my appointments, I often prescribe Phlebotens Plus as one of the most effective means of toning up blood vessels. I advise it to everyone who knows the problem of heaviness and severe pain in the legs, local bloating, etc.symptoms.
Self-medication is not worth it. First you need to contact your doctor.
Valentina Radugina
As a therapist, I prescribe this drug solely as an adjuvant, combining it with therapeutic gymnastics and other procedures that I focus on.
The drug maximally restores the permeability of the capillaries and normalizes the walls of the vessels. For all the long practice of its use I do not remember a single case when side effects were noted. It should be used strictly according to the instructions and only if prescribed by the doctor, if there are corresponding symptoms.
