Enoxaparin is a heparin with a low molecular weight, it is usually administered either by subcutaneous or intravenous injection. It has an immediate onset of action, it binds to antithrombin III, inhibiting factor Xa ceasing the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin. Without thrombin fibrinogen cannot convert to fibrin to form a clot this prevents blood clot events from occurring. Enoxaparin is metabolized by the liver through depolymerization and desulfation to lower molecular weight metabolites. It is eliminated by the kidneys and generally has a half-life of 4 hours. If too much is administered a hemorrhage can occur, this overdose can be neutralized with a protamine sulfate solution equal to the dose of enoxaparin given. Enoxaparin can interact with some herbs and supplements, avoid those with anticoagulant and antiplatelet activity such as garlic, ginger, bilberry, danshen, piracetam and ginkgo biloba.
