Clotinex 4000 IU Enoxaparin Sodium Pre-filled Syringe - 1 Syringe
Following major orthopedic surgery or during extended periods of bedrest, blood flow in the legs slows down significantly, creating a high risk for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) which can lead to a fatal pulmonary embolism. Clotinex 4000 IU provides potent prophylactic anticoagulation. Formulated as a Low Molecular Weight Heparin (Enoxaparin), it actively inhibits coagulation factors Xa and IIa, keeping the blood thin and preventing deadly clots from forming.
How to Use / Operate
Administered via deep subcutaneous (under the skin) injection, usually into the fatty tissue of the lower abdomen. Do not rub the injection site afterward to prevent severe bruising. Use exactly as directed by your physician or nurse.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Clotinex Syringe used for?
It is an injectable blood thinner used to prevent DVT blood clots in patients undergoing surgery or experiencing prolonged immobility.
Why do I bruise easily while taking this?
Because the medication slows blood clotting, you may bruise more easily or bleed slightly longer from minor cuts. This is expected.
Important Clinical Considerations
Strictly contraindicated in patients with active major bleeding, severe uncontrolled hypertension, or a history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). Seek immediate emergency care if you experience sudden severe headaches, unusual bleeding, or dark tarry stools.
