pharmachologic effect
The active component of the drug Wessel Due F is a natural product obtained from the mucous tissue of the small intestine of pigs. Externally, sulodexide is a mixture of glycosaminoglycans. According to the instructions, Wessel Due F has angioprotective, anticoagulant, profibrinolytic and antithrombotic effects on the body.
The anticoagulant effect of the drug lies in the affinity of heparin for cofactor II, which deactivates thrombin.
The antithrombotic effect of the drug is caused by the suppression of activated X factor, increased production of prostacyclin, as well as a decrease in the amount of fibrinogen in the blood plasma.
The angioprotective effect of Wessel Due F is to restore vascular endothelial cells, which helps to normalize the density of the negative electrical charge of the pores of the vascular basement membrane.
The profibrinolytic effect is due to an increase in the level of plasminogen in the blood and a decrease in the amount of its inhibitor.
According to reviews, Wessel Due F reduces the level of triglycerides, which helps normalize the rheological properties of the blood.
Pharmacological properties
The drug Wessel Due F has the following pharmacological properties:
- angioprotective;
- anticoagulant;
- antithrombotic;
- profibrinolytic.
Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
The mechanism of anti-trobotic action is manifested by blocking activated X factor, increasing the secretion and synthesis of PGI 2 and decreasing the level of fibrinogen in blood cells.
The profibinolytic property of this medication is explained by an increase in the level of plasminogen activator with a decrease in the number of its inhibitor in the blood serum.
The angioprotective effect of the drug is revealed when the structural and functional integrity of vascular tissues is restored, as well as when the density level of a negative type of electrical charge is restored.
Almost 90% of the main component of Wessel Due F capsules is absorbed inside the vascular tissue. It is in this part that the concentration of sulodexide is 20 times greater than in other tissues of the patient’s body.
The drug is absorbed by the small intestine. The medicine is eliminated within 4 hours after administration and is metabolized in the cells of the liver and kidneys.

Composition and effect of the drug
Wessel Due F is a medicinal product whose active component is sulodexide, a natural substance obtained by extraction from the intestinal mucosa of pigs. The medicine also contains the following elements:
- sodium lauryl sarcosinate;
- colloidal silicon dioxide;
- triglycerides.
The drug is produced in the form of small oval capsules of a reddish-brown color with a soft jelly structure. The medicine is also available in the form of an injection solution.
Its main purpose is to reduce the level of triglycerides in the body, thereby restoring normal rheological blood parameters. The tablets have the following properties:
- restore the integrity of vascular endothelial cells;
- stimulate lipolytic enzyme;
- reduce the thickness of the basement membrane;
- increase the level of tissue plasminogen activator.
Providing an anticoagulant, angioprotective, profibrinolytic and antithrombotic effect on the body, Wessel Due F has a beneficial effect on blood clotting and improves tissue metabolism.
Indications
- angiopathy with an increased risk of thrombosis, incl. and after myocardial infarction;
- cerebrovascular accident, including the acute period of ischemic stroke and the period of early recovery;
- dyscirculatory encephalopathy caused by atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension;
- vascular dementia;
- occlusive lesions of peripheral arteries of both atherosclerotic and diabetic origin;
- phlebopathy, deep vein thrombosis;
- microangiopathies (nephropathy, retinopathy, neuropathy);
— macroangiopathy in diabetes mellitus (diabetic foot syndrome, encephalopathy, cardiopathy);
- thrombophilic conditions, antiphospholipid syndrome (prescribed together with acetylsalicylic acid, as well as after low molecular weight heparins);
- treatment of heparin-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia (since the drug does not cause or aggravate it).
Pharmadynamics
The fast-flowing heparin-like fraction has an affinity for antithrombin III, and the dermatan fraction has an affinity for heparin cofactor II. The anticoagulant effect is due to the affinity for heparin cofactor II, which inactivates thrombin.
The mechanism of antithrombotic action is associated with the suppression of activated factor X, with increased synthesis and secretion of prostacyclin (PGI2), with a decrease in the level of fibrinogen in the blood plasma, etc.
The profibrinolytic effect is due to an increase in the blood level of tissue plasminogen activator and a decrease in the content of its inhibitor.
The angioprotective effect is associated with the restoration of the structural and functional integrity of vascular endothelial cells, with the restoration of the normal density of the negative electrical charge of the pores of the vascular basement membrane. In addition, the drug normalizes the rheological properties of the blood by reducing the level of triglycerides (stimulates the lipolytic enzyme - lipoprotein lipase, which hydrolyzes triglycerides that are part of LDL).
Reduces blood viscosity, inhibits the proliferation of mesangial cells, and reduces the thickness of the basement membrane.
