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 formation of new blood clots and stops existing clots from getting bigger. This helps your body to dissolve existing blood clots and prevents them from causing harm.
  • 2) It prevents the formation of new blood clots in your blood.

Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen can be used to:

  • Treat blood clots that are already formed in your blood.
  • Prevent blood clots from forming in your blood in the following situations: before and after surgery, when you are bedridden due to illness.

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

  • Prevent blood clots from forming in unstable angina (when not enough blood is being supplied to the heart muscle) or after a heart attack.
  • Prevent blood clots from forming in the tubes of a dialyzer (used in people with severe kidney problems).

2. Important information before using Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen

Do not use Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen if:

  • you are allergic to enoxaparin sodium or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6) or to 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.
  • you have had a previous reaction to heparin that caused a significant decrease in the number of blood cells responsible for blood clotting (platelets) in the last 100 days.
  • you have antibodies against enoxaparin in your blood.
  • you have severe bleeding or a medical condition that increases the risk of bleeding, such as stomach ulcers, recent brain or eye surgery, or recent bleeding stroke.
  • you are using Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen to treat blood clots and spinal puncture or surgery is planned within 24 hours: lumbar puncture or surgery under spinal or epidural anesthesia. You should not use Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen in these patients. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen.

Warnings and precautions

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

  • you have ever had a reaction to heparin that caused a significant decrease in the number of blood cells responsible for blood clotting (platelets)

Instructions for syringes without a safety system

  • Preparing the injection site: Before injecting, wash your hands and dry them. Use a swab to clean (without rubbing) the chosen injection site. A different area of the abdomen should be used for each injection.
  • Remove the protective cap from the needle. It is possible that a drop may form at the tip of the needle. If this happens, remove the drop by tapping the syringe (with the needle pointing downwards) before injecting.
  • Perform the injection: The pre-filled syringe is ready for immediate use. Choose a site on the right or left side of the abdomen. It should be at least 5 cm away from the navel and towards the side.

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.

Severe side effects

You should stop using Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen and consult your doctor or nurse immediately if you experience symptoms of a severe allergic reaction (such as rash, difficulty swallowing or breathing, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, mouth, throat or eyes).
If you experience any of the following symptoms, stop using enoxaparin and seek medical attention immediately:

  • Red, scaly, widespread rash with thickening of the skin and blisters, accompanied by fever. Symptoms usually appear at the beginning of treatment (acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis).

Like other similar medicines (used to reduce blood clotting), Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen may cause bleeding. This can be life-threatening. In some cases, bleeding may not be immediately visible.

You should contact your doctor immediately if:

  • you experience any bleeding that does not stop by itself
  • you experience signs of excessive bleeding such as weakness, tiredness, paleness, dizziness with headaches, or unexplained swelling. Your doctor may decide to monitor you more closely or change your medicine.

You should contact your doctor immediately:

  • if you experience any signs of a blood clot blocking a blood vessel, such as: cramp-like pain, redness, increased warmth, or swelling in one of your legs - these are symptoms of deep vein thrombosis;

or
shortness of breath, chest pain, fainting, or coughing up blood - these are symptoms of pulmonary embolism.

  • if you experience painful rash or purple spots under the skin that do not fade on pressure. Your doctor may perform blood tests to check the number of platelets in your blood.

Other side effects:

Very common (may affect more than 1 in 10 people):

  • bleeding;
  • increased liver enzyme activity. Common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people):
  • increased tendency to bruise - this may be due to a decrease in the number of platelets in your blood;
  • red spots on the skin - these changes are more likely to occur at the injection sites of Enoxaparin sodium Ledraxen;
  • skin rash (hives);
  • itchy, red skin;
  • bruising or pain at the injection site;
  • decreased red blood cell count;
  • increased platelet count;
  • headache. Uncommon (may affect up to 1 in 100 people):
  • sudden severe headache - this could be a sign of bleeding in the brain;
  • feeling of tenderness and swelling in the abdomen - this could be a sign of bleeding in the stomach;
  • large, red, irregularly-shaped patches on the skin, with blisters or without blisters;
  • skin irritation (local irritation);
  • you may notice yellowing of the skin or eyes and darker urine
    • this may indicate liver problems. 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;
  • high levels of potassium in the blood - this is more likely to occur in people with kidney problems or diabetes; your doctor may check this with a blood test;
  • increased eosinophil count in the blood - your doctor may check this with a blood test;
  • hair loss;
  • osteoporosis (a condition where bones are more likely to break) after long-term use of the medicine;
