A member asked:
I'm on fragmin (dalteparin). if i'm in an accident, will i bleed to death? is there an antidote like there is for warfarin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
High bleeding risk: To correct bleeding from fragmin, (dalteparin) would use Protamine to help reverse it, although it is not a complete antidote.
