Heparin Preservative Free (active ingredient: heparin sodium) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Prevention and Treatment of Thromboembolic Disorders: Heparin Preservative Free is used to prevent and treat blood clots in conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and atrial fibrillation.
  2. Anticoagulation During Medical Procedures: It is indicated for use as an anticoagulant during surgeries, blood transfusions, and dialysis to prevent clot formation.
  3. Maintaining Patency of Intravenous Lines: Heparin Preservative Free is also used to maintain the patency of intravenous (IV) catheters and lines by preventing clot formation within the lines.

Heparin belongs to a class of drugs known as anticoagulants, which work by inhibiting the formation of clots in the blood vessels.

Heparin Preservative Free should be given by intermittent intravenous injection. The vial should be used only once, and any unused portion should be discarded. Confirm the correct vial choice prior to administration of the drug. Additionally, preservative-free Heparin Sodium Injection should be used to reduce the risk of toxicity from benzyl alcohol. Consult with a healthcare provider for specific instructions on how to use Heparin Preservative Free vial.

To use Heparin Sodium Injection Preservative Free vial, first ensure that you have the correct vial for your intended use. Then, clean the injection site with an alcohol swab and insert the needle into the vial. Draw up the prescribed dose of Heparin Sodium Injection and remove any air bubbles from the syringe. Finally, administer the injection as instructed by your healthcare provider. Follow proper injection techniques and dispose of used needles and syringes in a sharps container to prevent unintentional needle-stick injuries.
