About Clexane 60 Injection

Clexane 60 Injection belongs to a class of medications known as blood thinners or anticoagulants. It helps to treat harmful blood clots in your blood. Furthermore, Clexane 60 Injection can prevent or treat blood clots caused by a variety of medical conditions, such as unstable angina, after an operation or long periods of bed rest due to illness, after a heart attack, and blood clots forming in your dialysis machine's tubes. A blood clot is a mass of blood that forms when platelets, proteins, and cells in the blood stick together. A blood clot can occur in any body part, leading to a heart attack, stroke, and organ damage (even coma or death).

Clexane 60 Injection contains Enoxaparin, which is low molecular weight heparin. Clexane 60 Injection works by preventing existing blood clots from growing larger, allowing your body to break them down and prevent them from harming you. On the other hand, it inhibits the formation of new blood clots in your blood.

Clexane 60 Injection will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. You may experience bleeding, increased liver enzymes, skin rash (hives, urticaria), itchy red skin, bruising or pain at the injection site, and headache as side effects of Clexane 60 Injection . Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, report to your doctor immediately.

If you are known to be allergic to Clexane 60 Injection or any other medicines, inform your doctor.

Low Platelet Count

Managing a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) caused by medication usage requires a multi-step approach. Here are some steps to help manage the condition:
Inform your doctor about your low platelet count and medication usage. They will assess the situation and guide the best course of action.
Your doctor may recommend adjusting or stopping the medication that is causing a low platelet count. This could involve switching to alternative medication or reducing the dosage.
Monitor your platelet count regularly through blood tests to track any changes. This will help the doctor determine the effectiveness of the treatment plan.
If an underlying condition, such as infection or inflammation, contributes to the low platelet count, your doctor will treat it.
In some cases, alternative treatments like platelet transfusions or medications that stimulate platelet production may be necessary.
Avoid risky activities and certain medications; eat a balanced diet with plenty of water to reduce bleeding risk and boost overall health.
If you experience severe bleeding or bruising, seek emergency medical attention immediately.

Disease/Condition Glossary

A blood clot can occur in any part of the body, leading to a heart attack, stroke, and damage to organs (even coma or death). Blood clots can reach your arteries or veins in the organs like the brain, kidney, heart, lungs, and limbs. Conditions like atherosclerosis, diabetes, heart failure, irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), and obesity/overweight can trigger excessive blood clotting in the brain and heart. On the other hand, deep vein thrombosis (blood clot in veins), peripheral artery disease (narrowed arteries due to fat deposit or blood clot), and atherosclerosis (fat built upon the walls of the arteries) can cause a blood clot in your limbs.
