title: [Drug therapy in venous circulatory disorders of the leg].
abstract: There are quite a great variety of drugs available for treating the disorders of venous blood flow and its consequences. At this point it may be cautioned against applying out of each group a representative in form of a combination of drugs. Undesired changing effects must be taken into account even though adequate results are not yet submitted for all substances. The potency of anticoagulants is known by the numerous antiinflammatories which mainly is based on the changes of protein binding. Drug therapy of the disorders of the venous blood circulation alone does not suffice, since it cannot cancel the morphological changes. It is a part of a more comprehensive therapy and should support the physical and surgical procedures.
