Tinzaparin

Tinzaparin is a medication that helps prevent blood clots by thinning the blood. It's a type of low-molecular-weight heparin, often used in hospitals or after surgeries to reduce the risk of dangerous clots forming in veins or lungs. Tinzaparin works by enhancing the effect of a natural substance in your body that controls blood clotting, making it less likely for clots to develop. It is usually given as an injection under the skin and is generally used for short-term prevention or treatment of blood clots, under medical supervision.
