Nadroparin is a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) used for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic diseases, such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. It acts as an anticoagulant by potentiating the inhibition of factor Xa and to a lesser extent thrombin. Nadroparin is widely used and approved in many countries for clinical use.
Pharmacokinetics reported in healthy adult volunteers after subcutaneous administration.
