Information about Fragmin (Dalteparin)

Fragmin is a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) that acts as an anticoagulant. It is used to prevent and treat thromboembolic disorders, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).

Product Highlights

  • Inhibits factor Xa and, to a lesser extent, factor IIa (thrombin), preventing the formation of blood clots.
  • Prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing surgery and those receiving medical treatment.
  • Treatment of DVT and PE.
  • Prevention of clot formation in patients with unstable angina or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).

Key Ingredient

  • Dalteparin

Key Benefits

  • Reduces the risk of blood clots in various clinical settings.
  • Subcutaneous injection allows for easy self-administration.
  • Unlike unfractionated heparin, routine monitoring of anticoagulation levels is often not necessary.

Direction of Use

  • Administer via subcutaneous injection in the abdominal area, rotating injection sites.
  • Follow healthcare provider's instructions for the appropriate dose based on the indication.
  • Can be given with or without food, as directed.

Safety Concerns

  • Increased risk of bleeding, which may be severe; monitor for signs of bleeding.
  • Possible decrease in platelet count; monitor platelet levels regularly.
  • May cause pain, redness, or bruising at the injection site.
  • Rare but possible; watch for symptoms such as rash or difficulty breathing.

Avoid Fragmin (Dalteparin) If

  • You have a known allergy to dalteparin or any of its components.
  • You have active major bleeding or a condition that increases bleeding risk (e.g., severe thrombocytopenia).
  • You have a history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT).
  • You are undergoing certain surgical procedures where anticoagulation could pose a risk.
  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding without discussing it with a healthcare provider.
