For How Long Should One Take Clexane For DVT?

Hello, I had a DVT/PE in November 2016. In April this year I was given the all clear by my consultants. However, they suggested that I take Clexane before any long haul flights. I am due to fly long haul at end of month. Two sectors each of about 9 hours flight duration. I weigh 85kg. Please advise how many Clexane injections I should take and at what doseage. Thanks and regards. Paul

Hi,

Consult a physician and get evaluated.

The dosage of Celexa will depend on the target INR values.

You can ask for oral drugs like Warfarin so that it will be more convenient for you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
