Lonopin 40mg Injection contains enoxaparin (40 mg), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Factor Xa Inhibition: Enoxaparin inhibits factor Xa, a key protein involved in the blood clotting process. By doing this, it helps reduce the formation and growth of blood clots within your blood vessels.

• Thrombin Inhibition: The medicine also works by deactivating thrombin (factor IIa), another essential clotting protein. This action further prevents clot development and helps manage thromboembolic events effectively.

  By acting on these specific proteins, enoxaparin effectively reduces the risk of harmful blood clot formation, aiding in the management of various thromboembolic disorders that Lonopin 40mg Injection is indicated for.
