Heparin may be unsafe to use during pregnancy. Although there are limited studies in humans, animal studies have shown harmful effects on the developing baby. Your doctor will weigh the benefits and any potential risks before prescribing it to you. Please consult your doctor.
SAFE IF PRESCRIBED
Heparin is safe to use during breastfeeding. Human studies suggest that the drug does not pass into the breastmilk in a significant amount and is not harmful to the baby.
Heparin is released in small amounts in the breast milk and amounts reaching the baby are also small, which would not be expected to cause any harmful effects to the baby.

Brief Description
Indication
Atrial fibrillation, Acute coronary syndrome, Unstable angina, Pulmonary embolism, Thromboembolism, Deep-vein thrombosis, Cardiopulmonary bypass, Hemofiltration, Peripheral arterial embolism
Administration
IV Preparation
Recommended infusion concentration for most patients is 25,000 units in 500 mL D5W (50 units/mL premixed infusion solution)
IV Administration
IV injection may be given undiluted or diluted in 50-100 mL NS or D5W
Infusion: Dilute in NS, D5W, or other compatible fluid
Continuous IV therapy is preferred because intermittent IV therapy produces a higher incidence of bleeding abnormalities

Contraindication
Patients predisposed to active bleeding including thrombocytopenia, peptic ulcer disease, cerebrovascular disorders, haemorrhagic blood disorders, bacterial endocarditis, severe hypertension, oesophageal varices. Recent surgery at sites where haemorrhage would be an especial risk. Severe renal and hepatic impairment. Cerebral or subarachnoid haemorrhage, abdominal or thoracic bleeding into closed space, severe traumatic bleed, hepatic, renal, splenic or arterial injury, severe haemostatic defect, arterial thrombosis with heparin-associated thrombocytopenia. IM admin.
Mode of Action
Heparin increases the inhibitory action of antithrombin III (AT III) on clotting factors XIIa, XIa, IXa, Xa and thrombin. This inhibits the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin and fibrinogen to fibrin. It also inhibits platelet function. It may reduce the activity of ATIII at very high doses.
Precaution
Monitor platelet counts. Discontinue treatment if thrombocytopenia occurs. Hypersensitivity, elderly, pregnancy.
Lactation: Not excreted in breast milk; compatible
Side Effect
>10%
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, possibly delayed (10-30% )
Frequency Not Defined
Mild pain,Hematoma,Hemorrhage,Local irritation,Erythema,Injection site ulcer (after deep SC injection),Increased liver aminotransferase,Anaphylaxis,Immune hypersensitivity reaction,Osteoporosis (long-term, high-dose use)
Potentially Fatal: Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia with or without thrombosis; bleeding.
Interaction
Enhanced anticoagulant effect w/ other drugs affecting platelet function or the coagulation system (e.g. platelet aggregation inhibitors, thrombolytic agents, salicylates, NSAIDs, vit K antagonists, dextrans, activated protein C). Decreased anticoagulant effect w/ gyceryl trinitrate infusion. Increased risk of hyperkalaemia w/ ACE inhibitors or angiotensin II antagonists.
