Pharmaceutical Information
Drug Name Tetradecyl hydrogen sulfate (ester)
Drug ID BADD_D02182
Description Sodium tetradecyl sulfate is an anionic surface-active agent which is used for its wetting properties in the industry and is also used in medicine as a blood vessel irritant and sclerosing agent for hemorrhoids and varicose veins [L2031]. Sodium tetradecyl sulfate has been widely used since the 1950s, and in 1978 the first successful report of injecting a 1% solution into spider angiomas in 144 patients was made. Also noted was an unspecified number of episodes of epidermal necrosis without significant long-term effects and a 30% incidence of post-sclerosis pigmentation that resolved within a few months [L2035].
Indications and Usage Sotradecol (sodium tetradecyl sulfate injection) is indicated in the treatment of small, uncomplicated varicose veins of the legs showing simple dilation, with competent valves [L2030]. Sodium tetradecyl sulfate has been designated as an orphan drug by the FDA for the treatment of gastrointestinal bleeding due to esophageal varices [L2041].
