Escin (Cat No.: R024765) is a mixture of triterpenoid saponins found in the seeds of Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut). It has well-documented anti-inflammatory, venotonic, and antioxidant properties, making it useful in treating conditions like chronic venous insufficiency, varicose veins, and hemorrhoids. Escin works by reducing capillary permeability, improving blood circulation, and protecting vascular tissues. It is commonly included in topical creams and oral supplements to reduce swelling, pain, and bruising associated with venous disorders and inflammatory conditions.
