About Fraxiparine 2850IU Injection

Fraxiparine 2850IU Injection belongs to the class of ‘anticoagulants’ (blood thinners), primarily used to prevent and treat harmful blood clots. Fraxiparine 2850IU Injection is also used to prevent stroke or heart attack and deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in leg veins). It reduces the risk of blood clots in patients undergoing larger orthopaedic surgeries like elective hip surgeries. 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 the arteries or veins in the organs like the brain, kidney, heart, lungs and limbs.

Fraxiparine 2850IU Injection contains ‘Nadroparin’ that belongs to the class of low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs). It works by inhibiting the production of clotting factors. This further prevents the conversion of fibrinogen (soluble protein) to fibrin (insoluble protein), thereby preventing blood clot formation. Fraxiparine 2850IU Injection helps in the free flow of blood through your veins, making it less likely to form a serious blood clot.
