Hepalpan 300 IU/g is a topical medicine containing heparin sodium. It is available as a cream and as a gel, each supplied in a 40 g tube.
Both formulations are used to relieve symptoms associated with superficial bruising and haematomas and as adjunctive treatment for superficial thrombophlebitis.
The only active ingredient is heparin sodium. Dexpanthenol and allantoin are excipients within the formulations.
Apply only to intact skin. Do not apply to open wounds, infected skin, mucous membranes or weeping eczema.
