How to Use Clexane 4000IU Injection (Enoxaparin)
- Preparation:
- Wash Hands: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
- Check the Medication: Ensure the Clexane pre-filled syringe is not expired, and the solution is clear and free of particles. Do not use it if the solution is cloudy or contains particles.
- Gather Supplies: You will need an alcohol swab and a cotton ball or gauze pad in addition to the Clexane pre-filled syringe.
- Selecting Injection Site:
- Choose the Site: The injection is usually given in the fatty tissue of the abdomen, at least 5 cm (2 inches) away from your belly button. Alternate the injection site with each dose to avoid soreness and bruising.
- Clean the Area: Clean the injection site with an alcohol swab and let it dry.
- Administering the Injection:
- Remove the Needle Cap: Hold the syringe in one hand and pull off the needle cap with the other hand. Be careful not to touch the needle to avoid contamination.
- Pinch the Skin: Using your thumb and forefinger, pinch a fold of skin at the cleaned injection site.
- Insert the Needle: Hold the syringe like a pencil at a 90-degree angle to your skin and quickly insert the needle into the pinched skin fold.
- Inject the Medication: Press down on the plunger of the syringe to inject the medication slowly and steadily.
- Remove the Needle: Once the medication is fully injected, remove the needle while keeping the syringe at the same angle.
- Release the Skin: Release the pinched skin fold.
- Post-Injection Care:
- Apply Pressure: Use a cotton ball or gauze pad to apply gentle pressure to the injection site for a few seconds. Do not rub the area, as this can cause bruising.
- Dispose of the Syringe: Dispose of the used syringe in a designated sharps disposal container. Do not reuse the syringe or needle.
- Storage:
- Store Clexane syringes at room temperature, away from direct light and moisture.
- Keep the medication out of reach of children and pets.
- Clexane should only be used as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
