How To Take Lovenox Injection During Pregnancy?
I am a pregnant 19 year old who has been prescribed Lovenox..My nurse told me to inject the needle in my upper arm area, 2 fingers under my shoulder bone and I was wondering if that is not correct because I read the pamphlet and looked online and everybody says to do it in the abdomen, so what do I do?

You can take it in abdomen, no problems. Just avoid taking the injection repeatedly in the same site.
