What is Cutenox Enoxaparin Sodium Injection?
Cutenox is a Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) anticoagulant containing Enoxaparin Sodium. It is primarily used to prevent and treat harmful blood clots such as Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE). In Nigeria, Cutenox 40mg is frequently prescribed for patients following surgery, those with limited mobility, and as support for high-risk pregnancies.
How Cutenox 40mg Works
Cutenox works by thinning the blood, which helps to prevent the formation of new clots and stops existing clots from getting larger. This is crucial in managing conditions like unstable angina and certain types of heart attacks. Each pre-filled syringe (PFS) contains a precisely measured dose of 40mg Enoxaparin Sodium for convenient administration.
Administration and Storage
Cutenox is typically administered via a subcutaneous injection (under the skin). It should be stored at room temperature (below 25°C) and should not be frozen. Always follow the specific dosage and administration instructions provided by your doctor or healthcare professional.

Manufactured by Gland Pharma and distributed in Nigeria by Fidson Healthcare PLC, Cutenox is a trusted alternative to other blood thinners.
