Astraparin 40 MG Injection 0.4 ML contains enoxaparin (40 mg), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Enhances Inhibition of Factor Xa and Thrombin: Enoxaparin boosts the inhibition of factor Xa and thrombin by antithrombin III. These factors are involved in blood coagulation, so inhibiting them helps prevent blood clots.
• Interrupts Blood Coagulation Cascade: By enhancing the inhibition of factor Xa and thrombin, enoxaparin interrupts the blood coagulation cascade, thus preventing the formation of blood clots.
