Answer:
Yes
MedHead Confidence Score: 3
Amount Saved: $1800 cost of 4 infrared coagulation treatments for hemorrhoids
MedHead Message:
Take this 500mg twice daily along with Horse Chestnut 300mg twice daily for 3-4 weeks, then intermittently to maintain good health of your veins. Save some major moola by avoiding hemorrhoidal laser or surgery. Yikes! Some people have tried Pycnogenol (Maritime Pine Bark) in combination with Horse Chestnut and Citrus bioflavonoids for a more synergistic effect.
