Enoxaparin (40 mg) is the active ingredient in Cutenox 40mg Injection 0.4ml and has a specific mechanism of action:

• Enhances Antithrombin III (ATIII) Activity: Enoxaparin functions by binding to and boosting the performance of antithrombin III (ATIII). This natural substance in your body is crucial in limiting blood clotting factors, particularly factor Xa and thrombin (factor IIa).
• Prevents Blood Clot Formation: Enoxaparin effectively stops the formation and growth of blood clots in your veins and arteries by suppressing these clotting factors. This action helps maintain smooth blood flow, reducing the risk of serious health complications.
