while you are at the clinic or in 
hospital.  If possible, please read this 
leaflet carefully before this medicine

WHAT HEPARIN 
INJECTION IS USED FOR 
Heparin Injection belongs to a group 
of medicines known as 
anticoagulants.  Anticoagulants work 
by decreasing the clotting ability of 
your blood and help stop clots 
forming in the blood vessels.  
Anticoagulants are sometimes called 
"blood thinners", although they do 
not actually thin the blood.  Heparin 
will not dissolve blood clots that 
have already formed, but it may 
prevent any clots that have already 
formed from becoming larger and 
causing serious problems. 
Heparin Injection is used for 
prevention and treatment of diseases 
caused by blood clots such as in 
certain blood vessel, heart and lung 
conditions.  It is also used to prevent 
blood clots from forming during 
surgery, dialysis or blood 
transfusions. 
Heparin Injection may be used for 
the treatment of other conditions that 
are not mentioned above.  Your 
doctor will be able to tell y
