Postpartum thromboprophylaxis with enoxaparin: a prospective cohort study on patients’ adherence, injection experience, and information retention after counselling by pharmacists
Postpartum females counselled by pharmacists largely adhered to short-term enoxaparin for thromboprophylaxis. The impact of the counselling session may be enhanced by addressing their psychological readiness to self-inject, awareness of adverse effects identification, mitigation, and management, as well as setting reminders to prevent forgetfulness to inject.
