In what cases is the use of heparin suppositories from hemorrhoids?
Expediency of using heparin
One of the negative complications of hemorrhoids is the formation of blood clots in the hemorrhoids. Such a pathological process is often observed in patients in the later stages of the disease.

Among local medications, suppositories with heparin are the most effective. They stop the process of thrombus formation and have a resolving effect on the formed blood clots, which contributes to a significant relief of the further course of the disease.
How do hemorrhoid suppositories with heparin work?
Pharmacological action of heparin suppositories
Heparin is a natural direct anticoagulant, one of the main elements of the anticoagulant properties of human blood. It is present in almost all organs, but to a greater extent in the lungs, liver and heart. The mechanism of action of heparin is associated with its effect on blood coagulation processes. It inactivates thrombin circulating in the blood, which is the main enzyme that promotes blood clotting. This causes inhibition of the conversion of fibrinogens into fibrin, the threads of which underlie the thrombus. Heparin reduces the ability of platelets to stick together, and also increases the fibrinolytic functionality of the blood by reducing the concentration of antiplasmins.
