Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin (LMWH)

Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin (LMWH)

Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs), for example, dalteparin, enoxaparin, among others, are anticoagulants. These drugs are used in the prophylaxis of venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) on acute or elective admission to the hospital, and they are used in the treatment of deep vein thromboses (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). This activity will highlight the mechanism of action, adverse event profile, pharmacology, monitoring, and relevant interactions of LMWH, pertinent for members of the interprofessional team in the treatment of patients with conditions where this agent is indicated.
