Reference Brand and Generic Options

Heparin sodium injection does not have one single reference brand. It is sold as generic heparin by several manufacturers and under local brand names, and the product may be given by intravenous injection, subcutaneous injection or infusion.

Compare the units per mL, the total volume, the manufacturer and the packaging on your product. Heparin strength is measured in international units (IU), and different concentrations are supplied for different uses, so check the label before ordering. Heparin is made from pig intestinal tissue, which matters to some people for dietary or religious reasons.

How it works

Heparin is an anticoagulant (blood thinner). It binds to antithrombin, a natural protein in the blood, and makes it far more effective at blocking clotting factors, mainly thrombin and factor Xa. This stops new clots forming and stops existing clots from growing, while the body slowly dissolves them. The effect begins at once when injected into a vein and wears off within hours.

Preventing and treating clots: heparin is used to prevent and treat deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and to prevent clots in people at risk during or after surgery or periods of immobility.

Heart and artery conditions: it is used in unstable angina and heart attack, in blocked arteries in the limbs, and in atrial fibrillation with a high clot risk, alongside other treatment.

Common 25,000 IU use: a 25,000 IU container is commonly diluted into a bag to give a continuous intravenous infusion for treating clots, unstable angina and in extracorporeal circuits such as dialysis, under monitoring.

Heparin is given by or under the supervision of a healthcare professional. A 25,000 IU container is normally diluted into an infusion bag, and the infusion rate is adjusted to blood tests. The US label describes an intravenous starting dose followed by 20,000 to 40,000 units over 24 hours.

The UK product information describes similar regimens. Never inject a concentrated heparin product without dilution unless instructed. Doses for children, older adults and people with kidney disease differ, and treatment is monitored with aPTT or anti-Xa tests. Each container is for single use. Always follow the product leaflet and the advice of your prescriber.

Storage Instructions

Store the ampoules or vials below 25°C, protected from light, following any instructions on the pack. Keep out of the reach of children. Each container is for single use only, and unused solution should be thrown away.

• Bleeding, including from the gums, nose or injection site
• Bruising or pain at the injection site
• Low platelet count, which can be serious (heparin-induced thrombocytopenia)
• Raised liver enzymes on blood tests
• Skin reactions or rash
• High potassium levels
• Hair loss with long-term use
• Bone thinning with long-term use
• Allergic reactions

Seek urgent medical help for heavy or uncontrolled bleeding, black or bloody stools, vomiting blood, a severe headache, new clots, skin discolouration or blackening at the injection site, a sudden drop in platelets, or swelling of the face, lips or throat. Protamine sulfate can reverse heparin in an emergency.

• Bleeding risk: heparin can cause serious or fatal bleeding. Do not use if you have active bleeding or a high risk of it.
• Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia: do not use if you have had this condition. Platelet counts are checked regularly during treatment.
• Monitoring: doses are adjusted using blood tests such as aPTT or anti-Xa levels, and for infusions this is done in hospital.
• Spinal or epidural procedures: blood clots around the spine can cause paralysis after a spinal puncture or epidural. Tell your doctor you take heparin.
• Conditions with high bleeding risk: avoid in severe uncontrolled high blood pressure, active stomach ulcers, bleeding disorders, recent brain, eye or spinal surgery, and cerebral aneurysm.
• Other medicines: aspirin, NSAIDs, other anticoagulants and antiplatelet medicines raise the risk of bleeding.
• Source and preservatives: heparin is derived from pigs. Some multi-dose vials contain benzyl alcohol and must not be used in newborns.
• Kidney and liver disease and older adults: lower doses and closer monitoring may be needed.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: heparin does not cross the placenta and is used in pregnancy when needed. It is considered compatible with breastfeeding.
• Allergy: do not use if you are allergic to heparin or any ingredient.
