ARIXTRA 7.5MG 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. ARIXTRA 7.5MG 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.

ARIXTRA 7.5MG 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.

ARIXTRA 7.5MG INJECTION will be administered by a trained healthcare professional; hence do not self-administer. Some people may experience unusual bleeding, anemia (low number of red blood cells), bruising or swelling. Most of these side effects of ARIXTRA 7.5MG INJECTION do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

ARIXTRA 7.5MG INJECTION contains ‘Fondaparinux sodium’ used to prevent deep vein thrombosis (blood clot in the blood vessels of legs) and pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the blood vessels lungs). It also reduces the risk of blood clots during orthopedic (such as hip or knee surgery), abdominal surgery, or restricted movement because of an acute illness. ARIXTRA 7.5MG INJECTION works by stopping the action of clotting factor Xa (a natural substance in the blood that causes clotting). This inhibits fibrin production (a protein that binds platelets together and forms a clot), preventing blood clot formation. ARIXTRA 7.5MG INJECTION is also used to treat certain types of heart attack and chest pain called unstable angina.
