Heparin Side Effects

Heparin Sodium Injections
On February 11th, 2008 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that the Baxter Healthcare Corporation would be temporarily stopping the manufacturing of multiple-dose vials of Heparin Sodium Injections. The halt of manufacturing comes after patients reported serious allergic reactions and hypotension after being administered the large dose injection.


What are Heparin Sodium Injections?
Heparin sodium is a blood thinner that is commonly administered into the vein of patients who are undergoing: kidney dialysis; specific types of cardiac surgery; deep venous thrombosis (DVT); pulmonary emboli; and treatment and/or prevention of other serious medical conditions. The injections are generally in high doses of 5,000-50,000 units. There have been numerous side effects from the large does of Heparin. However when Heparin is administered in smaller doses the same/similar side effects have not been reported.

Baxter Heparin Sodium Injection Side Effects:
Beginning in late December 2007 patients have reported contrary side effects after receiving the large dose treatment of Baxter Heparin. On January 17th, 2008 Baxter Healthcare had a voluntary recall of several of its vials of the 10mL lots and 30mL lots due to contrary side effects. The current issue for the halt of production is from serious reactions including:

  • difficulty breathing
  • nausea
  • vomiting
  • excessive sweating
  • rapidly falling blood pressure, which may lead to life threatening shock

Few people have died after receiving Heparin, however the relationship to the drug and the deaths are not clearly connected.
