Enoxaparin sodium, sold under the brand name Lovenox among others, is an anticoagulant medication (blood thinner).[11] It is used to treat and prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) including during pregnancy and following certain types of surgery.[11] It is also used in those with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and heart attacks.[11] It is given by injection just under the skin or into a vein.[11] It is also used during hemodialysis.[8][10]
Common side effects include bleeding, fever, and swelling of the legs.[11] Bleeding may be serious especially in those who are undergoing a spinal tap.[11] Use during pregnancy appears to be safe for the baby.[11] Enoxaparin is in the low molecular weight heparin family of medications.[11]
Enoxaparin was first made in 1981 and approved for medical use in 1993.[12][11] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[13] Enoxaparin is sold under several brand names and is available as a generic medication.[11] Enoxaparin is made from heparin.[12] In 2020, it was the 350th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 500thousand prescriptions.[14]
