A member asked:
Protein s and c deficiency during pregnancy. what is the prophylaxis dosis of enoxaparin sodium (lovenox/clexane) to avoid dvt if i have 45kg (bmi 17.3)? 2000 ie ok per day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
By UPTODATE: the recommended prophylactic dose is 40 mg SC daily and I assume this dose is for an average female weight around 80 kg. So with your low body weight of 45 kg, I think 20 mg SC daily is probably fair.
