Product Overview:
Canaprine 5k for injection is an anticoagulant (blood thinner) used to prevent and treat harmful blood clots in veins, arteries, or lungs. It contains sodium heparin, a natural glycosaminoglycan that rapidly inhibits clotting factors, ensuring unimpeded blood flow in high-risk patients or during the postoperative period.
Main uses/indications:
- Treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
- Pulmonary embolism (PE)
- Myocardial infarction (MI) and unstable angina
- During dialysis and heart surgery to prevent blood clotting
- Maintaining catheter patency
Mechanism of action:
Heparin enhances the activity of antithrombin III, which in turn inactivates thrombin and factor Xa, preventing the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin and reducing thrombus formation.
Advantages:
- Rapid onset of anticoagulant effect
- Critical for emergency treatment of blood clots
- Can be administered intravenously or subcutaneously.
- Well-established safety in hospital protocols
- Helps prevent complications such as stroke or embolism in at-risk patients.
Warnings and precautions:
- Do not use in patients with active bleeding, severe thrombocytopenia, or hypersensitivity to heparin.
- Monitor APTT levels regularly during therapy.
- Caution when used in patients with impaired liver/renal function or hypertension
- Risk of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) – platelet monitoring
Contraindications:
- Active internal bleeding
- Recent surgery (eg, brain, eye, spinal cord)
- Hemophilia or bleeding disorders
- Severe hypertension
