Fragmin Ampule is usually administered by subcutaneous injection, which means it is injected just under the skin without injecting it into a muscle. The dosage and duration of treatment will depend on your medical condition and your response to treatment, with weight being a factor in some cases.
If you are using Fragmin at home, learn all the preparation and usage instructions from your healthcare professional and the product package. To safely inject yourself, you should be in a lying or sitting position and visually inspect the solution for any particles or discoloration before using it. Do not use if either is present and do not mix Fragmin with any other medication in the same syringe.
Before injecting each dose, thoroughly clean the injection site with rubbing alcohol, and change the site each time to reduce skin damage. To minimize bruising, avoid rubbing the injection site after administering the shot.
If you are using Fragmin to prevent blood clots due to surgery, your doctor might direct you to begin taking it before or after the surgery and continue for a few days.
