enoxan 10000
Enoxaparin 10000 IU is a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) used as an anticoagulant for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. It works by inhibiting factor Xa and, to a lesser extent, thrombin (factor IIa), thereby reducing the formation of blood clots.
The 10000 IU dosage is typically used in acute cases such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and for preventing thromboembolic complications in hospitalized patients. Enoxaparin is administered subcutaneously and offers advantages over unfractionated heparin, including longer half-life and lower risk of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT).
Its use requires medical supervision, including regular monitoring of platelet counts and renal function. Contraindications include active bleeding, history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, and severe renal impairment. Caution is advised when used alongside other anticoagulants due to bleeding risk.
