Overview

Diosmin is a chemical called a flavonoid that is found in some plants. It's most commonly found in citrus fruits.

Diosmin might work by reducing swelling and restoring normal vein function. Diosmin also seems to have antioxidant effects. Diosmin is often taken with other plant flavonoids like hesperidin.

Diosmin is most often used for hemorrhoids and poor blood flow. It's also used for back pain and many other conditions, but there's no strong scientific evidence to support most of these uses.
