Enoxaparin Sodium Injection

Enoxaparin Sodium Injection with the brand name “Janaxaparin-40” is highly recommended by medical professionals for the treatment and prevention of blood clots or heart problems, like severe chest pain and heart attack. This injection is for those patients who are on bed rest or having hip replacement, stomach surgery, or knee replacement. It is also used in the management of acute coronary syndromes, like unstable angina and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction(NSTMI), to decrease the risk of heart attack. Avoid administering this injection by yourself. Administer the Enoxaparin sodium injection IP 40 mg under the supervision of a medical professional and as prescribed.

The Enoxaparin Sodium Injection IP works by interfering with the body’s natural blood clotting process. This medication improves the activity of a protein in the body known as antithrombin III that inhibits two essential clotting factors. By blocking these factors, this injection slows down the formation of fibrin, the protein that is helpful in forming clots. Therefore, this effective Enoxaparin sodium injection prevents the formation of new clots and keeps existing ones from getting larger.
