Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Vasoflex D1 contains 2 active ingredients: hesperidin methyl chalcone and diosmin. Both are plant-derived bioflavonoids — compounds found naturally in citrus and other plants — and are included to support vein and circulation health.

The product also contains several inactive ingredients used as fillers and binders: stearic acid, dicalcium phosphate, magnesium stearate, croscarmellose sodium, silicon dioxide, and pharmaceutical glaze.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Helps maintain leg vein health and venous circulation.
  • We looked for evidence on: Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), Hemorrhoids, Varicose veins, Venous leg ulcers, leg swelling, spider veins.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Diosmin is rated "Possibly Effective" for Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Diosmin is rated "Possibly Effective" for Hemorrhoids, Venous leg ulcers.
  • Also on file: Diosmin is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Varicose veins.

The evidence for what this product actually does is limited. For hesperidin, research suggests it is possibly ineffective for weight loss and high cholesterol, and there isn't enough reliable data to rate it for fatty liver disease.

For diosmin, the data shows it is possibly effective for chronic venous insufficiency (poor circulation in the legs), venous leg ulcers, and hemorrhoids — but the evidence for back pain and nerve pain from diabetes is insufficient to rate. Overall, neither ingredient is proven to work for the conditions it's often marketed for.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Hesperidin Diosmin

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Hesperidin is generally well tolerated in food amounts and short-term use, though long-term safety data is limited. One case of allergic skin inflammation was reported in a 70-year-old with no prior allergies after topical application of hesperidin methyl chalcone.

Diosmin is also generally well tolerated short-term; common side effects are stomach pain, diarrhea, dizziness, nausea, and skin reactions. Rare but serious side effects include cardiac rhythm abnormalities and hemolytic anemia (a breakdown of red blood cells).

For pregnancy, the safety data is insufficient — neither ingredient has enough information to know if it's safe, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist before use. The same applies to breastfeeding.

Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Diosmin, Hesperidin.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 1,141 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking Vasoflex D1, double-check your medications with the tool on this page if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (warfarin, aspirin, etc.), heart medications (especially verapamil or diltiazem), muscle relaxants (chlorzoxazone), anti-inflammatory drugs (diclofenac), seizure medications (carbamazepine), or any medication metabolized by your liver. Both ingredients may affect how these drugs work.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Vasoflex D1 may help with leg circulation and vein health if diosmin's limited evidence holds up for you, but it interacts with a substantial number of medications — especially blood thinners, heart drugs, and drugs your liver has to process. Check your medications with our tool before you start.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your pharmacist or doctor first.

Diosmin9 drug types · 884 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, diosmin may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
A case of spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage has been reported for a 77-year-old female after 6 weeks of warfarin therapy, despite an international normalized ratio (INR) of only 1.8. The patient had also been taking aspirin and diosmin for several years. Experts speculate that chronic intake of diosmin predisposed the patient to spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage by inducing chronic microcirculatory hypertension and inhibiting platelet aggregation. The presence of aspirin was also thought to play a role in this event.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, diosmin might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine 200 mg increases blood levels of carbamazepine by approximately 58% and decreases carbamazepine clearance by 42%. It also decreases the formation of carbamazepine's active metabolite. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of carbamazepine by inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of chlorzoxazone.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of chlorzoxazone 250 mg increases blood levels of chlorzoxazone by 53% and decreases chlorzoxazone clearance by 40%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of chlorzoxazone by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP2C9 substrates.
Diclofenac is metabolized by CYP2C9 enzymes. Clinical and laboratory research shows that diosmin inhibits the metabolism of diclofenac. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of diclofenac 100 mg increases blood levels of diclofenac and decreases diclofenac clearance.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP2E1 substrates.
Chlorzoxazone is metabolized by CYP2E1 enzymes. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of chlorzoxazone (Paraflex 250) 250 mg increases blood levels of chlorzoxazone by 34% and decreases chlorzoxazone clearance by 40%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of chlorzoxazone by inhibiting CYP2E1.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
Laboratory research is conflicting with respect to the effects of diosmin on CYP3A4. Some research suggests that diosmin does not affect CYP3A4 activity. However, other research suggests that diosmin alters the metabolism of carbamazepine, a CYP3A4 substrate. Laboratory and animal research show that oral administration of diosmin for 7 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine increases plasma concentrations of carbamazepine, decreases the clearance of carbamazepine, and decreases the formation of carbamazepine's active metabolite. Additionally, pharmacokinetic research in healthy male subjects shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine 200 mg increases blood levels of carbamazepine by approximately 58% and decreases carbamazepine clearance by 42%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of carbamazepine by inhibiting CYP3A4. Diosmetin, a metabolite of diosmin, may also inhibit CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Diclofenac (Voltaren, Others)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of diclofenac.
Clinical and laboratory research shows that diosmin inhibits the metabolism of diclofenac. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of diclofenac 100 mg increases blood levels of diclofenac and decreases diclofenac clearance. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of diclofenac by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Fexofenadine (Allegra)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of fexofenadine.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of fexofenadine 120 mg increases blood levels of fexofenadine by approximately 49% and decreases the apparent oral clearance of fexofenadine by 41%. The time taken to reach maximum plasma concentration, the half-life, and the apparent renal clearance of fexofenadine are not affected. For this reason, it is speculated that diosmin alters the pharmacokinetics of fexofenadine via inhibition of P-glycoprotein in the intestine, but not in the kidney or liver.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might increase levels of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp).
Preliminary laboratory research suggests that diosmin inhibits P-gp. Additionally, pharmacokinetic research in healthy male subjects shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of fexofenadine 120 mg increases blood levels of fexofenadine, a P-gp substrate, by approximately 49% and decreases the apparent oral clearance of fexofenadine by 41%. The time taken to reach maximum plasma concentration, the half-life, and the apparent renal clearance of fexofenadine are not affected. For this reason, it is speculated that diosmin inhibits P-gp in the intestine, but not in the kidney or liver.

Diosmin full monograph & interactions

Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone7 drug types · 702 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, hesperidin may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research suggests that hesperetin, a bioflavonoid aglycone derivative of hesperidin, may have antiplatelet activity.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking hesperidin with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Some clinical and animal research shows that hesperidin can decrease blood pressure. However, other clinical research shows that hesperidin does not affect blood pressure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Celiprolol (Celicard)

Theoretically, hesperidin may decrease the levels and clinical effects of celiprolol.
Animal research shows that concomitant use of hesperidin may reduce the plasma area under the curve of celiprolol by up to 75%. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, concomitant use with CNS depressants may cause additive sedative effects.
Animal studies show that hesperidin has sedative effects, due to opioid receptor activity and can increase sedation when used with diazepam. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diltiazem (Cardizem, Others)

Theoretically, hesperidin may increase the levels and clinical effects of diltiazem.
Animal research suggests that hesperidin may enhance the bioavailability of diltiazem, increasing the plasma area under the curve of diltiazem by up to 65.3%. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, hesperidin might inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux and potentially increase levels of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein.
In vitro research shows that hesperidin can inhibit P-glycoprotein efflux. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Verapamil (Calan, Others)

Theoretically, hesperidin might increase the levels and clinical effects of verapamil.
Animal research suggests that hesperidin may enhance the bioavailability of verapamil, increasing the plasma area under the curve of verapamil by 96.8%. This effect has not been reported in humans

Vasoflex D1 by Kramer Novis: Common Questions

Does Vasoflex D1 by Kramer Novis interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vasoflex D1 has a known interaction with 1,140 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Vasoflex D1 contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is Vasoflex D1 safe during pregnancy?
There isn't enough safety data to know. The product facts advise against use during pregnancy because safety information is not well established. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it if you're pregnant or trying to conceive.
Is Vasoflex D1 safe while breastfeeding?
Safety data is insufficient — we don't have enough reliable information to say either way. Check with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized advice before breastfeeding and taking this product.
What does diosmin do?
Diosmin is included for chronic venous insufficiency — poor blood flow in the legs — where research suggests it may help. It's also possibly effective for venous leg ulcers and hemorrhoids, though the evidence is limited.
Can this help me lose weight?
No. Research suggests hesperidin is possibly ineffective for weight loss, so this product is not indicated for that.
What are the side effects of diosmin?
Common side effects are stomach pain, diarrhea, dizziness, nausea, and skin inflammation or redness. Rare but serious side effects include irregular heartbeat and hemolytic anemia (breakdown of red blood cells).
Why does this product have so many drug interactions?
Diosmin inhibits enzymes in your liver that break down many medications — diclofenac, chlorzoxazone, and hundreds of others that depend on those pathways. Hesperidin and diosmin also both may affect blood thinners and some heart drugs. That's why it matters to check your specific list with our tool.
