Enoparin Injection 8000 Anti-Xa IU/0.8 ml contains Enoxaparin Sodium, a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) used as an anticoagulant to prevent and treat blood clot formation. It works by inhibiting key clotting factors in the blood, reducing the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and other thromboembolic disorders. This higher-strength formulation is used in patients requiring more intensive anticoagulant therapy under strict medical supervision.

Composition
Each prefilled syringe (0.8 ml) contains:
-
Enoxaparin Sodium 8000 Anti-Xa IU
This provides a reliable and predictable anticoagulant effect for high-risk patients.
Indications
Enoparin Injection is indicated for:
-
Prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in high-risk surgical and medical patients
-
Treatment of DVT and pulmonary embolism
-
Acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction)
-
Thromboprophylaxis in immobilized or critically ill patients
-
Prevention of clotting in selected clinical conditions
It should be used only under hospital supervision.
Pharmacological Action
Enoxaparin enhances the activity of antithrombin III:
-
Primarily inhibits Factor Xa, reducing thrombin generation
-
Minimally affects Factor IIa (thrombin)
-
Prevents fibrin clot formation and propagation
-
Provides a more predictable anticoagulant response than unfractionated heparin
This mechanism helps reduce the risk of life-threatening thromboembolic events.
