The components of Caldob Cream are as follows:

• Calcium dobesilate (0.25 % w/w): It primarily acts on blood vessels. It helps in the maintenance of vascular integrity and stability. By reducing capillary permeability, it minimises the leakage of fluids from small blood vessels into the surrounding tissue. This can be particularly beneficial in conditions associated with fragility and weakness of blood vessels. It plays a role in reducing capillary permeability and strengthening small blood vessels. It enhances microcirculation, promoting better blood flow to the skin.
• Lidocaine / Lignocaine (3 % w/w): Lidocaine is a local anaesthetic that blocks nerve signals in the area where it is applied. It provides temporary relief from pain and discomfort by numbing the skin and underlying tissues. This effect helps reduce itching and burning sensations commonly seen in various skin conditions.

Hydrocortisone is a mild corticosteroid that can help reduce inflammation and itching when applied topically to the skin.
• Zinc (5 % w/w): Zinc is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in wound healing and skin health. It promotes the regeneration of skin cells and supports the body's natural defence mechanisms. Zinc contributes to maintaining skin integrity and supporting the healing process.
