DALTEPARIN SODIUM

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Hemorrhage: Use caution in conditions with increased risk of hemorrhage ( 5
1 Risk of Hemorrhage including Spinal/Epidural Hematomas Spinal or epidural hemorrhage and subsequent hematomas can occur with the associated use of low molecular weight heparins or heparinoids and neuraxial (spinal/epidural) anesthesia or spinal puncture
The risk of these events is higher with the use of post-operative indwelling epidural catheters, with the concomitant use of additional drugs affecting hemostasis such as NSAIDs, with traumatic or repeated epidural or spinal puncture, or in patients with a history of spinal surgery or spinal deformity [see Boxed Warning , Adverse Reactions (6
To reduce the potential risk of bleeding associated with the concurrent use of FRAGMIN and epidural or spinal anesthesia/analgesia or spinal puncture, consider the pharmacokinetic profile of FRAGMIN [see Clinical Pharmacology (12

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Increased risk of hemorrhage: Monitor for signs of bleeding ( 5
3 ) Risk of Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia with or without Thrombosis ( 5
6 ) Increased Risk of Thrombosis in Pregnant women with Mechanical Prosthetic Heart Valves: women and their fetuses may be at increased risk
1 Increased Risk of Hemorrhage Cases of epidural or spinal hemorrhage and subsequent hematomas have been reported with the use of enoxaparin sodium and epidural or spinal anesthesia/analgesia or spinal puncture procedures, resulting in long-term or permanent paralysis

My mom came to me and said she had a supply of unopened medicine syringes that were veryyyyy expensive. She is wondering the best thing to do with them? Would like
