Blood Clotting (Hemostasis) Forums (Page 2)

I have been on lovenox for 5 days. I am beginning to hate this stuff. I take my shots at 9am and pm. In the morning it seems like I get about 30 minutes after and I am ready to lay down. I also get chills and feel like I am paralyzed.. It makes my legs and arms very heavy to move. I am typing this after my worse night thus far... Do hot my pj's are wet yet if I uncover then I get a chill. This just sucks. I use a compression sock during the day but it makes my legs very itchy and of course I don't want to scratch. ## Hello, Wayne! How are you? I'm very sorry about the problem that you're having. Those can be typical side effects of Lovenox and most blood thinners/anticlotting agents, there have been many posts complaining about similar issues and some people have even ha...

Hello, am Tomi from Nigeria, I was diagnosed of Hormonal imbalance since 2012 and PCOS, I controlled it and was fine all through 2014 and now, I've been seeing my period since a month now with heavy bleeding and clots, I've used Tranexamic Acid and it seems not to be working. Pls what drugs can I use again to stop the blood from coming? ## I have a same problem ,I take pause 500 but I don't stop bleeding. ## Hi Tomi, This is Dee, do you have fibroids or have mennorraghia? Heavy bleeding can be helped with finding out the root cause the of the problem. How is your diet, stress like? My bleeding has been helped with changing my lifestyle, releasing and letting go, and a healthy diet. Are you anemic?

I have a friend adding me if there is any way to prevent the bruising all around her body she has been getting (non-trauma related and not at the injection sites) while on Lovenox. Any advice? ## If she's experiencing bruising, without having bumped into anything or fallen, then she needs to consult her doctor. Her blood may be thinning too much and he dose or medication may need to be adjusted. Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, are administration site soreness, easy bruising and headache. Is there anything else I can help with? ## When you take it out to use, flick it so the air bubble is near the plunger, opposite the needle. Do not try to squirt the air bubble out. When you inject it make sure it is vertical, needle down. They package them with a little air bubble so when...

I took diane-35 for more than a week, i stopped it because i am having severe back pains, when i checked in the net, i read some feedbacks from diane users that they had cases of blood clotting in their lungs and the doctor told them that it may be because of the pill. I became pretty much scared that's why i stopped taking it. Until now, i have bleeding (dark brownish) and my lower back is painful most of the time. Almost 20days now since i have my bleeding. What could it be? Help! ## Taking it for awhile, then stopping has most likely thrown off your natural hormonal balance, according to the NIH. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, and headache. It may take a few months for things to settle and for your body to restore it's normal balance. If not, then you should consu...

Does it have any side effects? I'm having periods since 1 month and still it did not stop. I am planning to take tranexa. So how should i take it and how many days or tablets should i take? Please reply to me. ## Tranexa contains the active ingredient Tranexamic Acid, it is used to help stop bleeding and hemorrhages. Have you consulted a doctor? Before using a medication like this, it is very important to consult with a physician and discover what is causing your problem. No medication is risk free, this can cause side effects, such as: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and dizziness. If you do not need it, it can also cause blood clots that may result in blockages in your arteries.

I'm a male, 30 yrs old. My doctor recommended me Trenaxa mf. I wanna know what this is used for? ## i went to a dermatologist for acne and post acne scar treatment and was prescribed tranexemic acid 500 tablets, when i looked up for its uses i havn't found its use for acne mentioned anywhere, i would like to know the ude of this drug in acne particularly and other skin treatments ## All I know regarding tranexamic acid in regards to acne is that is sometimes can be found in creams that are supposed to whiten old acne marks (something do to with post inflamatory hyperpigmentation). It could be something to do with this. I didnt realise that they prescribed it in tablet form for acne. ## Is C tranex available in drug stores? Where can I buy it?

About 14 yrs ago while pregnant I had to use Lovenox. My doctor then ordered it with an injector pen. I must have thrown the pen away thinking I would not need it again. Since then the pharmacists say there is not such a device for Lovenox now and the have not heard of one in existence.. Has anyone else used an injector pen? If so, how and where did you get it? ## From what I could gather, apparently the auto inj. pen is like having a "pre-filled" syringe. It's described as being a pen-like device that keeps the needle point shielded before administering the dose. I've seen similar products go by the name of "autoject 2"...and if you google "auto inj.", there are also a number of sites who offer what I would imagine to be comparable alternatives to what y...

What can I do with 8 boxes of this expensive drug? ## The only thing I can suggest is taking it into your doctor or to your pharmacist and let them handle it. Some states have a program where you can turn in left-over medications and they are then provided to people without insurance at a very steep discount. Otherwise, I really can't help, since giving them to someone else is considered illegal. Have you tried contacting a pharmacy to ask? ## I would like to look into a way to get them donated...I am going through Chemo and today they found a blood clot and prescribed Lovenox. I then got the call from the pharmacy that my prescription limit has been met and I have to pay out of pocket which is not possible for me...please don't dispose of them... ## I'd like to help, but I ...

what is it what are the side effects what is it used for. my doctor is prescribing it for swelling after injections on my lips ## Sorry, I can't find anything listed under this. What country are you in? Are you certain of the na me and spelling? ## Varidasa appears to be a spanish medication (either from mexico, south america, or another spanish-speaking country) and contains the active ingredients Streptokinase + Streptodornase. From what I have found it is used as an effective and inexpensive clot-dissolving medication. Google translate says "VARIDASA is a potent anti-inflammatory and as such should be used in the treatment of acute or chronic inflammation, infectious or traumatic (with edema and / or hematoma)."

The U.S. FDA does warn that you may experience some side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, diarrhea and stomach pain.

are there any? I think that having to give yourself shots is pretty barbaric and think that before a doctor puts a person on warfarin the patient should be made aware of this gross and creepy shot deal when you are taken off warfarin for a procedure or surgery...when are the doctors going to bring out the leeches?

Please help me. ## Hi Chas, Have you not considered any other alternatives options that may be much more readily available to you? Surely, "something" would be better than nothing when it comes to saving your life, I would assume. There are actually an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables that evoke similar anticoagulant effects as the medication that you're desperately waiting on. According to the Harvard School of Public Health, omega-3 fatty acids are one option that can aid...

Please advise if this is a proven oral medication as i had read it seemed to b a recommended medication fir blood clots instrad of melasma. ## Hello, Susie! How are you? Yes, it is a medication that is used to help prevent or stop excessive bleeding, so it will do nothing to help with freckles.
