Fragmin 7500IU Injection
Prescription Required
Product introduction
Fragmin 7500IU Injection is known as an anticoagulant and is used to prevent harmful blood clots. It stops existing clots from getting any bigger and stops new ones from forming in the legs, lungs, brain, or heart. This can help prevent acute coronary syndrome, deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism.
Fragmin 7500IU Injection is an anticoagulant which helps prevent the formation of harmful blood clots in the legs, lungs and heart. It is available as an injection that is used under the skin. It can increase the risk of bleeding, so be careful while shaving, cutting nails, using sharp objects or engaging in contact sports (e.g. football, wrestling). Let your doctor know if you see blood in your vomits, urine or stool (black or tarry). Unlike other anticoagulants, regular blood test (PT-INR) is not required while taking this medicine. It is important that this medicine should be strictly taken according to the doctor’s advice, and should not be stopped abruptly.

Benefits of Fragmin Injection
In Treatment and prevention of Blood clots
Fragmin 7500IU Injection prevents new blood clots from forming and prevents the existing ones from getting bigger. It works by blocking a substance in the body which is involved in blood clotting. Thus it helps your blood flow smoothly throughout the body. This can help reduce damage caused by clots in your lungs (pulmonary embolism), brain (stroke), heart (heart attack), or other blood vessels (thrombosis). It can also be used to prevent clots from forming after surgery, for example, to replace a knee or hip joint. Although it does not “dissolve” blood clots, it can prevent them from getting bigger so your body can dissolve them over time. It can also make it less likely that parts of a clot will break off and travel to other parts of the body.
