Product introduction

Unithromb Ointment is also used to treat bruises and hematoma (a collection of blood under the skin). It speeds up the dissolution of the blood clot, decreasing the pain and swelling.

Use Unithromb Ointment in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. This medicine is for external use only. Clean and dry the affected area before applying this medicine. Make sure to wash your hands before and after applying this medicine.

Unithromb Ointment is generally safe to use with minimal or no side effects. However, slight irritation, burning sensation, or redness may be experienced after applying this medicine to the affected area. This is usually temporary and resolves on its own. Consult your doctor if it does not subside or persists for a longer duration.

Avoid contact of this medicine with broken skin. If you get it in your eyes, mouth, or broken skin, rinse thoroughly with plenty of water. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using it to make sure it is safe for them.

How to use Unithromb Ointment

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and gently massage the ointment.

How Unithromb Ointment works

Unithromb Ointment is a combination of two medicines: Benzyl Nicotinate and Heparin. Benzyl Nicotinate is a vasodilator and Heparin is an anticoagulant. Together, they work by widening the blood vessels and dissolving/ preventing the formation of blood clots. This increases blood flow to the affected area, thereby relieving the associated symptoms.

Frequently asked questions

What is Unithromb Ointment used for and how does it work?

Unithromb Ointment is used to treat thrombophlebitis, a condition where a blood clot causes inflammation, swelling, and pain in a vein, usually near the skin. It may also help reduce localized swelling, bruising, or vein inflammation. When applied to the skin, the medicine penetrates the affected area to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and support healing by improving blood flow and reducing irritation in the vein.

Can Unithromb Ointment be stopped when symptoms are relieved?

Unithromb Ointment is usually used for short-term treatment and can often be stopped once symptoms improve. However, if your doctor has advised you to continue using it for a specific duration, follow their instructions. Do not stop treatment earlier than recommended without consulting your doctor.

What precautions should I follow while using Unithromb Ointment?

Unithromb Ointment is meant for external use only. Do not apply it near the eyes, mouth, nose, or on cut, broken, or burned skin.

How should Unithromb Ointment be stored?

Keep Unithromb Ointment in the container or package it came in and close it tightly after use.

When should Unithromb Ointment be used and how often can it be applied?

Unithromb Ointment should be used only for the condition and duration advised by your doctor. Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin over the affected area as directed. Do not apply it on broken skin or near the eyes. The number of times it should be applied depends on your doctor’s recommendation.

What should I do if I miss a dose of Unithromb Ointment?

If you miss a dose of Unithromb Ointment, apply it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next application, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Do not apply extra amounts to make up for a missed dose.

Can Unithromb Ointment be taken with food or after meals?

Unithromb Ointment is applied to the skin and is not affected by food or meal timing. Use it exactly as advised by your doctor and follow the recommended application instructions.

Can I drink alcohol while using Unithromb Ointment?

What side effects can occur with Unithromb Ointment?

Unithromb Ointment may sometimes cause mild skin irritation, redness, itching, or burning at the application site. These effects are usually mild and temporary. Stop using the medicine and seek medical advice if you develop severe rash, swelling, breathing difficulty, or persistent skin irritation.

How long does Unithromb Ointment take to work?

The time it takes for Unithromb Ointment to show results can vary from person to person. Some people may notice improvement in swelling or pain within a few days, while others may require longer treatment. Continue using it as advised by your doctor and consult them if symptoms do not improve.

When should I stop Unithromb Ointment and contact a doctor?

Stop using Unithromb Ointment and contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen, if you develop severe skin irritation, rash, swelling, or allergic reactions, or if the treated area becomes more painful or inflamed.

Is Unithromb Ointment safe?

Unithromb Ointment is generally safe when used as directed by your doctor, but should be used with caution in people with bleeding disorders or those taking blood thinners. It should be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding only if advised by a healthcare professional.
