Clinical consequences

Danaparoid is excreted primarily with the urine; accumulation of danaparoid can be expected to occur with decreased renal function. This increases the risk of bleeding.

Clinical implications:
The main complication of treatment with heparins is the occurrence of bleeding.

Warnings & precautions in children

Children of the same age and weight can react differently to the given dose. That is why the dose should be determined based on the plasma anti-Xa levels and the balance between the intended effectiveness and the risk of bleeding.
