2. What you need to know before starting to use Menaven
No use Menaven:
- If you are allergic to sodium heparin or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
- On mucous membranes, ulcers, or open or infected wounds.
Warnings and Precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to use Menaven.
- Avoid contact with the eyes.
- Use only on intact skin.
- In cases of venous thrombotic disorders (such as thromboembolism), it is recommended to apply the product gently and without massaging.
- Do not use for a prolonged period or on large areas of the skin. In prolonged treatments, sensitization phenomena may appear.
- Caution is required in patients with hemorrhagic manifestations or significant alterations in the mechanisms for stopping bleeding (hemostasis), or even at the doctor's discretion, it should be avoided in these cases.
- Evaluate the clinical situation if the patient suffers from any other illness, is allergic, or is using any other medication.
- Due to the low absorption of the drug locally, it is unlikely to observe adverse reactions typical of the systemic effect (inside the body) of the drug; however, caution is required in patients with severe hypertension, gastric ulcers, and bleeding disorders, congenital or acquired, such as hemophilia, thrombocytopenia, and some vascular purpuras (purple spots on the skin), as the risk of bleeding is higher.
- Use during menstruation increases the risk of bleeding.
Children and Adolescents
It is not recommended for use in children and adolescents, as its efficacy and safety have not been established in these populations.
Other Medications and Menaven
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have used recently, or may need to use any other medication.
Although with Menaven, the risk of interaction is not predictable due to the low absorption of the active principle in the administration route of the medication, it has been described in the literature that drugs that affect platelet function, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), dextran, dipiridamol, etc., should be administered with caution in patients receiving heparin, as they may interact pharmacologically, increasing the risk of bleeding.
At the same time, the anticoagulant effect of heparin may be interfered with by other medications, such as nitroglycerin and cardiac glycosides (for heart diseases), nicotine, quinine (for arrhythmias of the heart), and tetracyclines (antibiotics).
No data are available on the interference of topical heparin with laboratory tests.
It is not recommended to apply other topical preparations in the same area without consulting your doctor.
Pregnancy and Lactation
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or think you may be pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.
Heparin does not cross the placenta or distribute in breast milk. However, since no studies have been conducted on the administration of heparin during pregnancy and lactation, Menaven should only be administered in these cases when strictly necessary and after consulting with your doctor.
Driving and Operating Machines
The influence of Menaven on the ability to drive and operate machines is negligible or insignificant.
Menaven 1000 UI/g cream contains cetomacrogol, cetearyl alcohol, propylene glycol (E1520), benzyl alcohol, and lavender essence.
This medication may cause local skin reactions (such as contact dermatitis) because it contains cetomacrogol and cetearyl alcohol.
This medication contains 10 mg of benzyl alcohol per gram. Benzyl alcohol may cause allergic reactions.
This medication contains 40 mg of propylene glycol per gram.
Propylene glycol may cause skin irritation.

3. How to use Menaven
Follow exactly the medication administration instructions contained in this leaflet or those indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. In case of doubt, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Skin use (on the skin).
The recommended dose is one to three applications per day on the affected area, applying 3 to 10 cm of cream depending on the area to be treated, followed by a gentle massage.
After application, hands should be washed unless they are the treatment site.
If symptoms persist for more than 5 days, or irritation or worsening occurs, consult a doctor.
If you use more Menaven than you should
Since this medication is for topical use, it is unlikely that poisoning will occur. It is unlikely that cases of overdose will occur due to the low systemic absorption of sodium heparin applied topically.
In the case of topical overdose, skin irritation signs may appear or local skin reactions may occur.
In cases of overdose or accidental ingestion of large quantities of Menaven, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately, or go to a medical center or call the Toxicological Information Service, phone: 91 562 04 20, indicating the medication and the amount ingested.
Accidental ingestion of large quantities of Menaven, due to its content of benzyl alcohol, may cause acute alcohol intoxication symptoms.
If you forgot to use Menaven
Do not use a double dose to compensate for the missed doses.
You should continue treatment normally without taking any particular action.
If you have any other questions about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

4. Possible Adverse Effects
Like all medications, this medication may produce adverse effects, although not all people may experience them.
The adverse reactions presented most frequently with Menaven are: contact dermatitis, local irritation, local allergic phenomena, and itching (pruritus).
Less frequently, the appearance of skin redness (erythema), skin dryness, burning, sensation of cold, and skin rashes (urticaria) have been described.
Very rarely, the possibility of skin necrosis in the application area has been described.
Due to the low absorption of the active ingredient of Menaven by topical route, it is not expected that systemic reactions will occur.
