Redesca® HP Prefilled Syringes for Blood Clot Treatment

Redesca HP is an enoxaparin injection used to prevent and treat blood clots. This page explains how it works, who it suits, and safe use essentials. It also covers access with US delivery from Canada, including guidance for Redesca HP without insurance.

What Redesca Is and How It Works

Redesca® HP contains enoxaparin, a low molecular weight heparin that helps stop harmful clots from forming or growing. It mainly inhibits clotting Factor Xa, which reduces thrombin generation. The effect is predictable compared with unfractionated heparin, so routine blood monitoring is usually not required outside special situations. Therapy is given as a subcutaneous injection, often once or twice daily, based on the condition and prescriber directions. Learn more about clot conditions in our overview of Blood Clot Dvt Pe.

Border Free Health connects U.S. patients with licensed Canadian partner pharmacies; prescriptions are verified with prescribers before dispensing.

As a class, Low molecular weight heparin enoxaparin has been used in hospitals and at home for surgical prophylaxis, treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and for certain types of chest pain related to coronary syndromes. The treatment is injected into fatty tissue, commonly the abdomen or outer thigh. Your prescriber will decide the dose and duration for your situation. Always follow the official label and your clinician’s instructions.

Who It’s For

This medicine is used in adults for prevention of venous thromboembolism during and after many surgeries or during periods of limited mobility. It is also used to treat DVT, with or without PE, when a non-oral anticoagulant is appropriate. In cardiology settings, it can be used with aspirin for unstable angina or non–ST-elevation myocardial infarction. For background on heart-related uses, see Acute Coronary Syndrome Acs.

People with active major bleeding, a history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, or severe uncontrolled hypertension should generally avoid this therapy unless a prescriber determines benefits outweigh risks. Use with caution in kidney impairment, pregnancy, and in those with a high bleeding risk. Patients receiving spinal or epidural anesthesia require special precautions to reduce the risk of spinal hematoma.

Dosage and Usage

Dosing follows the official label and your prescriber’s plan. For surgical prophylaxis, a once-daily injection is common in many settings; some orthopedic procedures use a twice-daily schedule. For treatment of DVT or PE, weight-based dosing is typically used, often every 12 hours. In certain heart conditions, dosing may be given every 12 hours alongside antiplatelet therapy. People with reduced kidney function may require adjustments.

General administration tips: inject subcutaneously in a rotating pattern of approved sites. Do not rub the site after injection. Prefilled syringes often include a small air bubble; do not expel it unless directed by a healthcare professional. If you are unsure about technique, ask a clinician or pharmacist to demonstrate. Never share needles or syringes.

Strengths and Forms

This therapy is supplied in ready-to-use syringes with fixed doses for single use. Many patients appreciate the convenience of Enoxaparin prefilled syringes because they avoid vial withdrawal steps and dose measurements at home. An example presentation is 40 mg/0.4 mL. Availability can vary by supplier and by country. Your prescriber will match a dose and duration to your condition, weight, and kidney function.

Missed Dose and Timing

If you miss a dose, contact your prescriber or follow the instructions provided on your treatment plan. In many cases, you may be advised to take the dose as soon as remembered if it is not close to the next scheduled injection. Do not double up to make up for a missed dose unless a clinician instructs you to do so. Consistent timing helps maintain steady anticoagulation, so consider reminders or a dosing log.

Storage and Travel Basics

Keep syringes in their original packaging until use. Store at typical room conditions as directed by the official label. Protect from excessive heat and from freezing. Keep out of reach of children and pets. When traveling, pack your medicine in a carry-on bag along with your prescription label and, if possible, a letter from your prescriber, especially when flying. Use a travel-sized sharps container or a puncture-resistant alternative approved in your area.

Pharmacy handling follows regulated standards, including temperature-controlled handling when required. Do not use syringes past the labeled expiry date or if the solution shows particles or discoloration. If storage conditions were uncertain, ask a pharmacist for guidance before use.

Pen Handling and Sharps Disposal

This product comes as single-use syringes, not an insulin-style pen. Before injecting, review the package instructions. Choose an approved site, clean the skin, and inject subcutaneously as directed. Do not attempt to recap used needles. Place used syringes immediately in a proper sharps container. When full, follow local rules for disposal at a collection site or through municipal programs. Never throw loose needles into household trash or recycling.

Benefits

This therapy offers predictable anticoagulation with a fixed dosing schedule for many uses. It is suitable for home administration in many cases after instruction from a healthcare professional. The treatment supports care during surgical recovery, medical hospitalization, and outpatient clot management. Its dosing options help clinicians tailor regimens to various conditions and patient needs.

Side Effects and Safety

• Bruising or pain at the injection site
• Nosebleeds or bleeding gums
• Headache or dizziness
• Mild anemia on lab tests
• Skin irritation or rash

Serious risks can include major bleeding, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, and rare spinal or epidural hematomas when used with neuraxial anesthesia or spinal puncture. Seek urgent medical attention for signs of uncontrolled bleeding, black or bloody stools, vomiting blood, sudden severe headache, chest pain, shortness of breath, or signs of stroke. Report unusual bruising, prolonged bleeding, or a sudden drop in blood pressure to a clinician promptly.

Drug Interactions and Cautions

Tell your clinician about all medicines, supplements, and over-the-counter products. Bleeding risk can increase when combined with other anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs, thrombolytics, or NSAIDs. Alcohol misuse may also raise bleeding risk. Use requires special timing considerations around spinal or epidural procedures to reduce hematoma risk. People with kidney disease, low body weight, recent stroke, uncontrolled hypertension, active ulcers, or eye or brain surgery history need individualized assessment.

What to Expect Over Time

Clot-related symptoms may gradually improve as your course progresses, though response varies by condition and clinical context. Some patients transition to an oral anticoagulant after an initial injection period if appropriate. Your prescriber may order occasional bloodwork such as platelet counts, kidney function, or anti-Xa levels in select cases. Staying consistent with injection times, rotating sites, and keeping follow-up appointments can support safe, steady therapy. If side effects appear, contact your care team rather than stopping the medicine on your own.

Compare With Alternatives

Other enoxaparin options may be suitable if your prescriber prefers a different brand or presentation. Two comparable choices we offer include Inclunox® HP and Elonox® HP. Selection depends on availability, dose range, packaging, and your clinician’s advice. Oral anticoagulants may be used in other scenarios; see our article on Xarelto Uses For Dvt Pe And Stroke Prevention for general education.

Availability and Substitutions

Supply can vary by dose and package size. If a specific syringe size is temporarily unavailable, a prescriber may recommend an alternative brand or dose strength with an equivalent regimen. Pharmacy teams verify the prescription and confirm product details before dispensing. We do not guarantee restock dates. If you have a time-sensitive need, speak with your prescriber about clinically appropriate alternatives.

Patient Suitability and Cost-Saving Tips

This medicine may be suitable for adults who need short- or medium-term anticoagulation and can self-inject or have caregiver support. Those with a high bleeding risk, uncontrolled hypertension, severe kidney impairment, or a history of HIT may need different approaches. To manage costs, consider longer-fill quantities if appropriate for your plan, set refill reminders, and coordinate follow-up appointments to avoid gaps. People comparing Enoxaparin without insurance often discuss options with their clinician to align regimen, duration, and budget.
