Prevention of recurrent venous thrombosis and post-thrombotic syndrome.

CONCLUSIONS: Interaction between PTS and R-DVT are complex; recurrences cause more PTSs, and a post-thrombotic limb is prone to R-DVT. Aspirin, for patients that can tolerate it, reduces the occurrence of PTS and R-DVT. In addition, ticlopidine and sulodexide are effective. Pycnogenol® is the most effective and safe for R-DVT and particularly PTS. Its full range of anti-thrombotic activity is now under evaluation. PMID: 29795059 [PubMed - in process]
