Phlebodia possess complex mechanism of action; except the venotonic one, it blocks the production of mediators of inflammation-prostaglandins and leukotriens; thus stops the uterine contractions and the preterm delivery. We use the tablet at pregnant women for preterm delivery. It was given one tablet a day /600 mg/ along with the tocolytic therapy.
