Daflon. An effective oral treatment for reducing and relieving of anal pain and bleeding.
No. 1 Doctor recommended venoactive drug worldwide. 1
How does Daflon work?
Daflon is a convenient oral venoactive treatment that gets to the root of anal pain and bleeding by working to treat the veins that become dilated and inflamed in the anal cushions which consist of vascular tissue. 2
Daflon can strengthen the overall tone of your veins, helping to improve blood flow and reducing venous congestion. It quickly relieves the signs and symptoms (e.g. anal bleeding, anal discomfort, pain, edema and anal discharge) in short term and reduces risk of relapse in long term. 2,3,4
Formulated for Fast Absorption and Relief
Daflon is a clinically proven, effective and discrete oral treatment derived from natural ingredients and specially formulated for maximum absorption. 2,5
This improved absorption means Daflon can rapidly get to the root of the problem to conveniently and discretely reduce the duration, intensity and recurrence of signs and symptoms like anal pain and bleeding, for both fast-acting treatment of acute episodes, and ongoing maintenance for recurrence. 2,6
Rapid Relief and Long Term Improvement
Daflon is clinically proven to quickly and effectively relieves anal pain and bleeding. Starting from 2 days, most people reported that their symptoms, anal bleeding, anal discomfort, pain and anal discharge had improved. In only 3 days, 80% reported that their bleeding had stopped. 2,4,6,7
Daflon can also be used for up to 2 months to treat chronic and recurring signs and symptom (e.g. anal pain and bleeding). With just 2 pills a day, 71% of users reported fewer instances of acute symptoms. 3

Naturally sourced, scientifically prepared.
The active ingredient in Daflon is a unique micronized purified flavonoid fraction (MPFF) containing 5 flavonoids, 90% micronized diosmin and 10% other active flavonoids (hesperidin, diosmetin, linarin and isorhoifolin). 4,9
Daflon's flavonoids are extracted from immature oranges that are rich in these naturally occurring plant chemicals. The compounds undergo a process of purification and refinement where the particles are made to collide with each other at high speeds (micronization), reducing them to tiny particles, less than 2 μm in size (micronized). These smaller particles are absorbed twice as easy by the body and a key ingredient of Daflon's success as a treatment for improving vein health and tone in Chronic Venous Insufficiency, anal tissues, and cushions. 4,5
