About Fondazest 2.5mg Injection
Fondazest 2.5mg Injection belongs to a class of drugs called anticoagulants (blood thinner) primarily used to prevent/treat deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in leg veins), pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lung), heart attack, and severe angina. It also reduces the risk of blood clots after orthopedic (such as hip or knee surgery), or abdominal surgery. Fondazest 2.5mg Injection prevents blood clot formation during and shortly after restricted movement because of an acute illness. Deep vein thrombosis is a medical condition in which blood clots form in deep veins, usually in the legs. Pulmonary embolism is a condition in which a blood clot blocks the arteries in the lungs.
Fondazest 2.5mg Injection contains ‘Fondaparinux sodium’ that works by inhibiting the action of clotting factors (a natural substance in the blood that causes clotting). Thereby preventing the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin (a protein that binds platelets together and forms a clot) and helping prevent blood clot formation. It eases blood flow through the veins, making it less likely to develop a severe blood clot.
