Warning
Avoid using Fondaparinux Sodium if you have a known allergy to it. Also, if you have severe kidney problems or a creatinine clearance of less than 30 ml/min, it is not recommended. Be cautious if you have a higher risk of bleeding due to medical conditions or if you are taking other medications that affect blood clotting. Patients weighing less than 50kg may have a higher risk of bleeding. Be aware that there is an increased risk of developing a spinal or epidural hematoma, which can lead to long-term paralysis. If you have liver problems, use with caution as it may affect the blood-thinning effects. It is advisable to consult a healthcare professional before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
