title: [Effect of veinotonyl 75 on the capillary permeability test using technetium albumin in cyclic orthostatic edemas].
abstract: The purpose of this trial was to evaluate the clinical effect of Veinotonyl 75 in 42 women, 42 +/- 11 years old, with orthostatic cyclic edema. The main evaluation criterion was the result of a capillary filtration test with 99 mTc albumin which was performed at day 0 and at day 30 after treatment. At day 0, all the women had abnormal results ie an albumin retention > or = 8% (mean: 14.3% +/- 4.8%). At day 30, 75% of the patients were normalized in the Veinotonyl 75 group versus 38% in the placebo group (p < 0.02). The albumin retention in Veinotonyl 75 group was under the pathological level (mean: 5.2% +/- 4.8%) while it was over in the placebo group (mean: 9.4% +/- 7%). This study confirms the activity of Veinotonyl 75 on capillar protein hyperfiltration and on return venous circulation.
