Sclerodex for Spider Veins?

Spider veins are typically stemming from a blue underlying vein, which is typically treated with one of 2 FDA-approved solutions, Sodium Tetradecyl Sulfate (STS) or Polidocanol (either as a solution or foam).  In that same session the small spider veins can then be treated successfully with either polidocanol or glycerin.  If the underlying reticular veins (blue veins feeding the spider veins) are not treated, the spider veins will most likely not resolve.

Sclerodex is not widely used for spider veins and not the best choice, in my opinion.  Pilodocanol and hypertonic saline are my preferred choices.

I would tell you that they all are effective in a trained professionals hands, but I favor polidocanol and glycerin. the most important thing is to visit with a physician that has a comprehensive vein practice that treats all types and sizes so as to effectively develop a treatment plan to eliminate your unsightly veins. Good luck!!
