Product Introduction

Enoxaflo 60mg Injection is an anticoagulant belonging to the low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) class. It contains enoxaparin as the active ingredient. It is used to treat severe blood clots. This drug also prevents deep vein thrombosis in patients undergoing abdominal surgery, hip replacement surgery, knee replacement surgery, and in those with severe movement restrictions. The injection prevents further cardiac complications in patients with unstable angina and non-Q wave myocardial infarction.

Enoxaflo 60mg Injection is not recommended for patients with active bleeding, hypersensitivity, or allergies to the active compound, or those with a history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.

This drug mainly prevents the activation of factor Xa, eventually preventing clot formation. It is commonly used for the prevention and treatment of conditions associated with increased risk of blood clots.
