Innohep

Tinzaparin sodium, the active ingredient in Innohep, is a low molecular weight heparin presented as a sterile injectable solution for subcutaneous use. It is employed to prevent and treat venous thromboembolism in patients at risk, including those undergoing surgery or experiencing acute coronary events.

GNH USA supplies Innohep as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals worldwide.

Innohep, a low molecular weight heparin, is used to prevent and treat thromboembolic conditions.

- Deep vein thrombosis (surgical patients): prevents clot formation after surgery. - Acute deep vein thrombosis: facilitates clot resolution and reduces propagation. - Pulmonary embolism: both prevents new emboli and treats existing embolic events. - Acute coronary syndrome: reduces the risk of coronary artery clot formation.

Adverse reactions may vary in frequency and severity.

Common Side Effects: - Injection site pain or bruising. - Minor bleeding such as epistaxis or gum bleeding. - Elevated liver enzymes. - Transient thrombocytopenia.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Heparin‑induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). - Major hemorrhage, including intracranial bleeding. - Spinal or epidural hematoma. - Severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis.

Use of Innohep requires careful assessment of patient‑specific risk factors.

- Renal impairment: consider dose adjustment or monitoring. - History of HIT: avoid use and select an alternative anticoagulant. - Concomitant anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents: monitor for increased bleeding. - Pregnancy: use only when the benefit outweighs potential fetal risk. - Upcoming surgery or invasive procedures: discontinue according to clinical guidelines. - Store at 2-8°C: keep refrigerated, protect from light, do not freeze or shake.

Tinzaparin sodium can interact with several drug classes, affecting bleeding risk.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Other anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, direct thrombin inhibitors). - Antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin, clopidogrel). - Fibrinolytic therapy (e
