Heparin is typically injected subcutaneously in areas such as the abdomen, specifically into the fatty tissue between the ribs and the hip, or the outer thigh. For intravenous administration, it can be injected into a vein. The injection site is usually rotated to prevent tissue irritation or bruising. It's important to follow healthcare provider instructions for proper injection technique and site selection.

What is heparin metabolized in?

Heparin is primarily metabolized in the liver and to a lesser extent in the reticuloendothelial system. The metabolism involves the action of heparinase enzymes, which break down heparin into smaller fragments. These fragments are then further processed and eliminated from the body, mainly through the kidneys. The metabolic process can vary based on the type of heparin used, such as unfractionated heparin or low molecular weight heparin.
