Introduction: In Peripheral vascular disease Peripheral vascular disease refers to the condition of disturbed blood circulation in blood vessels. Kinetal 20mg/1ml Injection prevents blood from clotting inside the veins and arteries. This helps the blood flow freely around your body thereby preventing a heart attack or stroke (or deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism). It helps prevent the formation of blood clots and also prevents the existing ones from growing bigger in size. Make appropriate lifestyle changes (such as eating healthy and staying active) to maximize the effectiveness of this medicine. In Intermittent claudication Intermittent claudication refers to muscle pain on mild exertion (ache, cramp, numbness or sense of fatigue), classically in the calf muscle, which occurs during exercise or even walking, and it gets better with a short period of rest. Kinetal 20mg/1ml Injection helps relieve this pain in the legs that is caused due to disturbed blood supply in the legs. It helps prevent formation of blood clots, improves blood flow and maintains free flowing of blood in your body.
