Clexane Injection contains an active ingredient called enoxaparin.

• Enoxaparin belongs to a class of drugs known as low molecular weight heparins (LMWH).
• It works by preventing existing blood clots from growing larger and inhibiting the formation of new blood clots.
• Enoxaparin specifically targets clotting substances in the blood and interferes with their ability to form clots.
• By doing so, it helps prevent serious health issues like heart attacks, strokes, and organ damage caused by blood clots.
• The precise mechanism of action involves the regulation of certain enzymes involved in the clotting process.
• Enoxaparin is administered through subcutaneous injections just under the skin.
• It should not be injected into the muscle.
• The usual frequency of administration is twice a day for 10 to 14 days as determined by your doctor.
