About Placentrex Gel

Placentrex Gel is used to treat chronic non-healing wounds or delayed wound healing (in the case of diabetes). Besides this, it also treats wounds associated with burns, chronic ulcers, or other skin defects. A wound that does not heal or heal slowly or recur is considered a chronic (long-term) non-healing wound.

Placentrex Gel contains human placenta extract. It promotes wound healing by decreasing inflammation and increasing blood supply to the wound, thereby slowing down the cells' damage. Besides this, it helps in collagen synthesis leading to potent wound healing. Thus, Placentrex Gel promotes faster and more comprehensive wound healing and facilitates tissue regeneration, especially in diabetic patients who have delayed wound healing.

You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Some common side effects of Placentrex Gel include stinging and burning sensations. Most of these side effects do not necessitate medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, if these side effects persist or worsen, inform your doctor.
