If you do drink alcohol, it is recommended to not have more than 2 drinks (can of beer, glass of wine, shot of spirit) per day for men or 1 drink per day for women.
You may have a higher risk for bleeding if you drink more alcohol than this.
It is not safe to binge drink by having many drinks in 1 day.
What should I do if I cut or injure myself?
Most of the time, small cuts or scrapes stop bleeding after putting pressure on the cut.
Call your provider right away if you have a hard fall or hit your head. You may need to be seen by a provider.
Can I do sports or physical activities?
You can do physical activities with a low risk for getting hurt.
Some contact sports or activities put you at higher risk of bleeding.
What if I become pregnant?
Tell your provider right away if you become pregnant or are planning to become pregnant.
Enoxaparin is often safe to take while pregnant. Your provider may want to watch you closer though.
Can I travel while taking enoxaparin?
Yes, you can travel.
Tell your provider if you are going to be gone a long time.
Try to take your enoxaparin at the same time as normal.
Make sure you have enough enoxaparin with you.
Move around every 2 to 3 hours if you are on a long car or plane trip. This lowers your risk for getting blood clots.
