1. What is Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen and what is it used for

Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen contains the active substance enoxaparin sodium. It belongs to a group of medicines called low molecular weight heparins or LMWHs.
Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen works in two ways:

  • 1) It prevents the growth of existing blood clots. This helps the body to dissolve existing blood clots, so they are no longer harmful.
  • 2) It prevents the formation of new blood clots in the patient's blood.

Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen can be used for:

  • Treating blood clots that are already present in the patient's blood.
  • Preventing the formation of blood clots in the patient's blood in the following cases: before and after surgery, or during a short-term illness when the patient will not be able to move for a period of time

in patients who have developed blood clots in the circulating blood due to cancer, to further prevent the formation of new blood clots

  • Preventing the formation of blood clots in unstable angina (when insufficient blood is supplied to the heart muscle) or after a heart attack
  • Preventing the formation of blood clots in the tubes of a dialyzer (used in people with severe kidney function disorders).

2. Important information before using Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen

Do not use Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen if:

  • the patient is allergic to: enoxaparin sodium or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6) heparin or other low molecular weight heparins, such as nadroparin, tinzaparin, or dalteparin. Symptoms of an allergic reaction may include: rash, difficulty breathing or swallowing, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, mouth, throat, or eyes.
  • the patient has had a reaction to heparin that caused a significant decrease in the number of blood cells responsible for blood clotting (platelets) in the last 100 days.
  • there are antibodies against enoxaparin in the patient's blood.
  • the patient has severe bleeding or a medical condition associated with an increased risk of bleeding, such as: stomach ulcers, recent brain or eye surgery, or recent hemorrhagic stroke.
  • the patient is using Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen to treat blood clots, and a lumbar puncture or surgical procedure under spinal or epidural anesthesia is planned within 24 hours.

Warnings and precautions

Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen should not be used interchangeably with other low molecular weight heparins. This is because they are not exactly the same, differ in activity, and have different instructions for use.
Before starting to use Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen, you should discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist if:

  • the patient has ever had a reaction to heparin that caused a large decrease in the number of blood cells responsible for blood clotting (platelets)
  • the patient has had a heart valve replaced
  • the patient has endocarditis (infection of the membrane lining the heart)
  • the patient has a history of stomach ulcers
  • the patient has recently had a stroke
  • the patient has high blood pressure

  • large, red, irregularly shaped skin changes with blisters or without blisters;
  • skin irritation (local irritation);
  • the patient may notice yellowing of the skin or eyes and darker urine
    • this may indicate liver disease. Rare (may affect up to 1 in 1000 people):
  • severe allergic reaction - symptoms may include: rash, difficulty swallowing or breathing, swelling of the lips, face, throat, or tongue;
  • increased level of potassium in the blood - this is more likely to occur in people with kidney disease or diabetes; The doctor may check this with a blood test;
