See you doctor: Fragmin (dalteparin) is a low molecular weight heparin and a Category B drug for pregnancy. This means animal studies have not seen harm to the fetus but there are no adequate studies in pregnant women. Some women with blood clotting problems can take these medications safely during pregnancy BUT they should be followed very closely by their physician.
