Clivarine Injection
Prescription Required
Product introduction
Clivarine Injection is an anticoagulant used to treat and prevent harmful blood clots in the body. It stops existing clots getting any bigger and stops new ones forming in the legs, lungs, brain, or heart. This can help prevent acute coronary syndrome, deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism.
Clivarine Injection is administered under the supervision of a doctor or a nurse. It should not be self-administered at home. The dose and length of treatment are based on your medical condition, your response to the medicine, and what you are being treated for. It may also be based on your age and weight. It is important to keep taking the injection even if you feel no symptoms because it is preventing future harm. If you stop taking it, you could get a blood clot.
The most common side effects of this medicine include headaches, bleeding, nosebleeds, constipation, and abnormal liver function. While taking this medicine you should avoid doing things that increase your risk of bleeding or injury and be careful while shaving, cutting nails, or using sharp objects. Bleeding can be dangerous and may not be obvious. Look out for symptoms like uncontrolled bleeding gums and inform your doctor.
Before using this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you have high blood pressure, diabetes or you have had a recent stroke and you should not take it if you have any current bleeding. Some medicines should not be used with Clivarine Injection. Tell your doctor what other medicine you are taking to make sure it is safe. If you have low body weight, you may be at increased risk of bleeding, and drinking alcohol can increase the risk of stomach bleeding. Consult your doctor about using this medicine if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Benefits of Clivarine Injection
In Treatment and prevention of Blood clots
Clivarine Injection prevents new blood clots from forming and prevents the existing ones from getting bigger. It works by blocking a substance in the body which is involved in blood clotting. Thus it helps your blood flow smoothly throughout the body. This can help reduce damage caused by clots in your lungs (pulmonary embolism), brain (stroke), heart (heart attack), or other blood vessels (thrombosis). It can also be used to prevent clots from forming after surgery, for example, to replace a knee or hip joint. Although it does not “dissolve” blood clots, it can prevent them from getting bigger so your body can dissolve them over time. It can also make it less likely that parts of a clot will break off and travel to other parts of the body.
