LOVENOX (PRESERVATIVE FREE)  (ENOXAPARIN SODIUM):  Enoxaparin is used to prevent and treat harmful blood clots. This helps to reduce the risk of a stroke or heart attack. This medication helps keep your blood flowing smoothly by lowering the activity of clotting proteins in the blood. Enoxaparin is an anticoagulant, also known as a "blood thinner." It is a type of heparin. Conditions which increase your risk of developing blood clots include certain types of surgeries (such as knee/hip replacement, abdominal), long periods of being immobile, certain types of heart attack, and a specific type of chest pain called unstable angina. For some medical conditions, enoxaparin may be used in combination with other "blood thinners."   FDA Approval Date: 2000-06-02 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 3  DVT & Pulmonary Embolism Severe leg and abdominal muscle cramps; lumps at injection site; pain from injections The injections are just too much of a hassle, and at some injection sites, the fat breaks down and hardened spots on the abdomen result. Also, I've awaken with severe leg cramps that remain sore for days. Also, lots of bruising. I tried Coumadin but because of extensive business travel couldn't regulate very well. M 48 10 months

 5  pregnancy I found Lovenox to bruise a lot less than Heparin which I found unbearable. Heparin left huge bruises and when you're taking two a day you run out of room quickly. I thought the Lovenox stung more but the decrease in bruising was well worth it. I'm taking it again while on Depot Lupron therapy and its only for two weeks. I am tired of it already! 9 Months 2 Weeks F 41
