Educational information only; not medical advice. FDA clearance applies to specific indications (an adjunct to the healing of graft tissue when venous congestion may delay healing, or to overcome venous congestion by creating prolonged localized bleeding) and does not establish clinical efficacy for all uses. Investigational and off-label discussions are labeled explicitly. Speak with a licensed clinician before any treatment.
