Venosclerosing agents are a specialized therapeutic class of injectable sclerosants designed to chemically ablate diseased or malfunctioning veins.
Administered directly into the target vessel lumen—often as a liquid solution or microfoam—these agents disrupt the vascular endothelial lining, exposing subendothelial collagen and triggering a controlled local inflammatory cascade that results in endovascular thrombosis, vessel collapse, and permanent fibrotic occlusion.
Their primary therapeutic role is in phlebology and vascular medicine, where they are widely utilized to manage chronic venous insufficiency, treat incompetent saphenous veins and varicosities, and eliminate spider or reticular veins.
Common clinical examples in this class include polidocanol and sodium tetradecyl sulfate.
