Mechanism of action
Calcium dobesilate is a vascular protectant that acts on the microvasculature by reducing capillary permeability and fragility. It improves blood flow through microvessels by decreasing blood viscosity and increasing erythrocyte deformability, thereby enhancing oxygen delivery to tissues. These properties make it useful in conditions characterized by microvascular dysfunction.
