What does it do?

Heparinoid is a substance that works similarly to materials that regulate coagulation in the blood, primarily used as a topical application. It promotes blood circulation and reduces inflammation, making it useful for treating bruises or swelling.

Heparinoid inhibits the formation of blood clots in the blood and facilitates blood flow, improving blood circulation in skin tissues. As a result, it reduces inflammation and swelling in areas with bruises or edema.
