Can you give clexane to a patient who suffers from hypertension, im doing an essay :)? -

Can you give clexane injections to a patient who suffers from hypertension (high blood pressure). Also what sort of antiametics could you give them e.g. Cyclizine? I m writing up an essay on hospital patients and need help big time :) thank you

If anyone is bed bound in hospital, and they have no contra indications for taking Clexane, and it is prescribed, then , yes they should get it, and ensure the correct dose is prescribed for their body weight. Anti emetics commonly used are: Cyclizine Metoclopramide I.V Kytril, or in Terminally ill patients, Nozinan.

If doctor prescribes clexane for the pt s heart, then its ok. There are guidelines for giving it as hpt can cause hemorrhagic stroke with anticoagulants. There s plenty of antiemetics, my place uses maxolon (primperan) more. It doesn t cause harm for hpt pts.
