Enoxaparin is a blood-thinning injection given under the skin. People with cancer have it to prevent clots after surgery or to treat a clot in a leg vein or the lungs.
The Lovenox label covers prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis in abdominal, hip and knee surgery and in acutely ill medical patients, inpatient and outpatient treatment of acute DVT, and acute coronary syndromes. ITAC 2022 recommends a low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for the initial treatment of established venous thromboembolism in people with cancer when creatinine clearance is at least 30 mL/min (grade 1A), and prefers LMWHs over vitamin K antagonists for treatment (1A); where a twice-daily regimen is needed, it says only enoxaparin (1 mg/kg twice daily) can be used. The NDA was first approved on 29 March 1993.
A low-molecular-weight heparin: potentiates antithrombin, mainly against activated factor X.
