As the color of the spirit, it invokes rest and can cause the body to produce chemicals that are calming and exude feelings of tranquility. Blue helps to slow human metabolism, is cooling in nature, and helps with balance and self-expression.
The standard dosage of Lovenox for preventing blood clots in people undergoing hip replacement surgery is 30 mg twice daily for 7 to 10 days, starting 12 to 24 hours after surgery. An alternative dosage of 40 mg once daily for three weeks, starting 12 hours before surgery, may also be used.
Off-Label Use of Lovenox During Pregnancy. In many cases, Lovenox is used off-label (for unapproved uses) in pregnant women. For instance, it is commonly used to treat clotting disorders such as Factor V Leiden in pregnant women. Lovenox is also frequently used to prevent miscarriages in women with recurrent pregnancy loss, whether or not they have an established clotting disorder. It is possible that Lovenox may someday be approved for such uses, although the cost of doing studies in pregnant women is often prohibitive.
