Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is designed to gain preliminary information via a uniform protocol regarding the clinical effects of Vasculera in participants with lipedema and the possible role of the glycocalyx as a physiological target for Vasculera activity. It is anticipated that the results of this case study will inform the development of a formal randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The goal of this type of clinical trial is to compare the measurement of participants legs before treatment and after using the treatment for approximately 3 months in clinic patients 20 to 70 years old with lipedema. The main questions it aims to answer are: does the leg circumference decrease and does the participants' overall wellbeing improve?

Participants will:

* Have physical examinations and measurements at baseline and 3 month visit
* Complete wellbeing self-assessments at baseline and 3 month visit
* Have blood drawn for chemical markers at baseline and 3 month visit
* Complete four visits total

Exclusion Criteria

1. other forms of leg enlargement, including lymphedema
2. any primary systemic vasculopathy
3. history of exposure to Vasculera or other diosmin containing medication within one (1) year of the screening visit
4. concomitant use of warfarin, platelet inhibitors, factor Xa inhibitors or any medication intended to reduce blood coagulability
5. concomitant use of diclofenac, metronidazole or chlorzoxazone
6. uncontrolled hypertension (BP\>170/110), unstable cardiac disease, active skin ulceration
