On July 22, Dongkook Pharmaceutical announced the results of a survey conducted by Korea Research, revealing that 47.9% of women have experienced venous circulation disorders, and among them, 61.3% have left the condition untreated. A representative from Dongkook Pharmaceutical stated, "If you experience swelling and numbness in your legs during long trips, you should suspect a venous circulation disorder. Rather than leaving it untreated, it is better to use medication that acts directly on the veins in your legs."

Sensia, Dongkook Pharmaceutical's venous circulation disorder symptom relief agent, acts directly on the veins in the legs to effectively improve venous circulation disorders. Its main ingredient is a standardized extract of Centella, which promotes collagen synthesis to enhance vascular elasticity, normalizes capillary permeability, and provides antioxidant effects to relieve discomfort such as swelling and pain in the feet, calves, and legs.

Clinical studies on the standardized Centella extract showed that, after one month of use, symptoms such as pain, heaviness, stiffness, and nighttime cramps decreased by more than 70%, and improvements were also observed in swelling of the calves and ankles.

As an over-the-counter medication available without a prescription, it has ranked first in sales in the venous circulation improvement category for 13 consecutive years, based on IQVIA data.
