I am giving Lovenox to my husband.  The instructions say to inject
around the abdomen but when I look at the Lovenox website it shows
that the area extends around the sides as well.  Can someone look at
this website:

http://www.lovenox.com/hcp/dosingAdministration/lovenoxSelfAdministration.aspx

and tell me if the shaded area is where I can inject.  His stomach is
pretty bruised and I hate giving him a shot where he's bruised.
There's a chance he may be on Lovenox for months - he has stage 4
cancer and we never know when he's going to need some kind of invasive
procedure.

I really need some help.

thank you

The shaded area is indeed where you can inject.

Be hungrier, which is truly healthier:
