Re: Lovenox teaching kits

I got this email from novation hope it helps you out with your quest.


Sanofi Update: "At Home with Lovenox®" Discharge Kits

In early January, Sanofi sent a letter to some members announcing that it would no longer provide discharge kits for Lovenox (enoxaparin sodium injection) as of March or April. Due to members' concerns that discontinuation of the kits could lead to potential patient safety issues, Novation asked Sanofi-Aventis to continue producing the kits

In response to our request, Sanofi provided the following message:
"Per our conversation, Sanofi-Aventis intends to continue to produce and resume shipments of the "At Home with Lovenox (enoxaparin sodium injection) discharge kits" once we receive final approval from the FDA.

"Sanofi-Aventis will, after receiving the FDA approval, send letters to those member accounts who ordered kits in the past six months.

"Because we are waiting for the final approval from the FDA, we cannot predict or commit to a date that we will resume shipment of the kits. In the meantime, the patient educational materials that are included in the kits are still available for your customers and their patients by visiting www.lovenox.com

"Your patience is appreciated as we work with the FDA to resolve this current issue. I will keep you apprised."
