FAQs

Q. Can Trenaxa Injection 5ml be given or injected into muscles?

No, Trenaxa Injection 5ml should not be administered by injection into the muscles. It should be given strictly through slow injection into the veins to prevent side effects.

Q. Is Trenaxa Injection 5ml dangerous?

Every medicine has its own side effects and these side effects are unlikely to happen if taken as directed. Usually, the benefits of the medicine are greater than the risk of side effects. Trenaxa Injection 5ml can rarely cause serious side-effects which can be dangerous, like anaphylaxis (red and lumpy skin rash, difficulty breathing, swelling of face, mouth, lips or eyelids), clot in another part of the body or eye problems. Do consult your doctor before you start this medication and follow the instructions strictly as given.

Q. Can Trenaxa Injection 5ml cause DVT?

Yes, Trenaxa Injection 5ml promotes blood clotting, thereby preventing blood loss. However, in rare cases, this can lead to a chance of developing a clot in the deep leg veins, a condition known as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Although many research studies have shown that the increased risk of clot can be due to some other additional factors rather than Trenaxa Injection 5ml itself. This condition has been found to be more common in female patients taking Trenaxa Injection 5ml. Do consult your doctor before you start this medication and follow the instructions strictly as given.

Q. Can Trenaxa Injection 5ml affect the colour vision of eyes?

Yes, there are chances of possible disturbances in your colour vision when you are on long term treatment with Trenaxa Injection 5ml. Hence, regular eye check should be done during treatment and doctor should be informed if you notice any change in your vision. If any changes are seen your doctor may stop the medicine and suggest an alternative.

Q. Can Trenaxa Injection 5ml cause pulmonary embolism?

Trenaxa Injection 5ml promotes blood clotting and can rarely cause blood clot to travel to the lungs (pulmonary embolism) which can turn fatal sometimes.

Evidence suggests that the increased risk of clot can be due to some other additional risk factors as well.
