Heparin is a medicine used to prevent and treat blood clots. It works by preventing blood from clotting. Heparin is usually given by injection and can be used before and after surgery, as well as to treat heart attacks, pulmonary embolisms and other blood clot-related conditions. In Hong Kong, doctors may recommend the use of heparin to prevent thrombosis, especially for some patients who need to stay in bed for a long time or who are undergoing surgery. Patients should be closely monitored for coagulation when using heparin as it may increase the risk of bleeding. At the same time, patients need to inform their doctors about any drug allergic reactions or other important medical information. While using heparin, avoid changing the dose or discontinuing use unless directed by your doctor. If any unusual bleeding or other adverse reactions occur, seek medical attention immediately.
Directions for use: Inject subcutaneously or intravenously using a syringe as directed by your physician or pharmacist. It usually needs to be administered in a medical setting or by a professional. Wash your hands before use and use the exact dosage, do not adjust yourself. Sometimes it needs to be taken with food, please follow your doctor's advice. During use, excessive activity or injury should be avoided to avoid bleeding.
Dosing Guidelines: The starting dose for adults is usually 80 units per kilogram of body weight, administered every 4 to 6 hours. Dosage may be adjusted based on blood test results. The dose for children is based on weight and physician instructions, and is usually lower than the dose for adults. Please make sure to use it according to your doctor's recommendations and do not increase or decrease the dosage without authorization. If any discomfort or doubt occurs, a physician should be consulted immediately.

Hyprin is a safe anticoagulant for pregnant women. Hyprin is relatively safe for women who are about to become pregnant or are already pregnant. But it must be used under the supervision of a doctor to ensure safety. During pregnancy, blood coagulation needs to be monitored frequently and the dosage adjusted according to the doctor's recommendations. If you need to use Heplin during pregnancy, pregnant women should follow your doctor's advice and use it strictly as required. You should watch for any possible adverse reactions, such as bleeding or bruising, while using Hyprolin. If anything unusual occurs, your doctor should be informed immediately. In general, Hyprin is relatively safe for pregnant women, but it must be used under the guidance of a doctor to ensure the safety of mother and child.
