Poly Removed From Colon. Took Heprin. Seems Like Addiction Problem And Depression. Should I Be Concerned?
yes..my husband is in the hospital....his roommate is really odd..has been in the hospital since August 1. My husband just had a poly removed from his colon . on the board in front of his roommate it says to give Heprin as needed....I do not want to make assumptions but seems like an addiction problem.... depression etc. I actually want my husband moved to a different room. What is heprin used for? should I be concerned?
Hi, There is no medicine like Heprin but it might be Heparin injection. It has no side effects like addiction etc. This is blood thinner injection given in some cardio vascular diseases to prevent clot formation in blood. so nothing to worry about other problem. Ok and take care.
