Is Clexane 20mg The Same As Lovenox 40mg?
Question: Is clexane 20mg equals to lovenox 40mg?
Brief Answer:
Same medicine but with different dose, so not equals.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM,
Clexane and Lovonox are the same drug - Enoxiparin, which is used to treat or prevent a type of blood clot called deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
They are not equals, because the dose 40mg is double the dose 20 mg.
It is a medicine that should be used as recommended, and with the right dose. So I would recommend to consult your doctor before changing the medicine, or at least continue with the same dose.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you have further queries. I will be happy to help.
Take care,
Dr. Papaqako

Brief Answer:
Yes, most probably you may fin it, but will need a prescription.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again dear,
I understand your concern.
In medical patients at risk for deep vein thrombosis the recommended dose of LOVENOX is 40 mg (4000 IU) once daily by subcutaneous injection.
I'm sure you may find it in dose of 20 mg, but that might not be the dose that you will need, and also you will need a prescription.
So my recommendation will be again to consult your doctor before doing the changes, because he might have had his reasons to give to you in that dose.
Take care,

How's crinone 8% gel? Will it help me stop spotting; nd prevent me frm miscarriage
Brief Answer:
It has shown some benefits but not many, so it may help.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Apologies for the late reply.
Crinone has been shown to have some benefits to treat infertility, so when its not possible to obtain a pregnancy due to the lack of the hormone of progesterone.
If the cause of your miscarriages is the lack of progesterone, than it may be helpful. Even though, the benefit from using it is not big, it doesn't cause side effects using it, unless there are some conditions that your doctor would know before he suggests you to use it.
Again, use it only if recommended by your doctor, because he knows your full history, and knows if its is recommended in your case.
But yes, it has shown some benefits to keeping the pregnancy, it the cause of possible miscarriage is lack of progesterone.
Let me know if you have further questions.
