Administer the prescribed enoxaparin (Lovenox).

  • The anticoagulant enoxaparin sodium is sold under brand names such as Lovenox. It is used to treat and prevent pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis, especially during pregnancy and after some types of surgery.
  • Heart attacks and acute coronary syndromes are also treated. A prescription drug called Lovenox is used to treat and prevent signs and symptoms of chest pain and blood clots (deep vein thrombosis or DVT) (angina). Lovenox can be taken alone or with other medicines.
  • Lovenox belongs to a class of drugs known as cardiovascular and blood anticoagulants. Tell your doctor if you have side effects that bother you or that don't go away.

Therefore, enoxaparin must be injected in such cases.
