Frequently asked questions
- What does Heparin Lock Flush treat?
- Heparin Lock Flush (Heparin Sodium) may be used to treat unstable angina, cerebral infarction, coronary thrombosis, myocardial infarction, postoperative complications, pulmonary embolism, based on NIH RxClass drug-classification data (conditions a drug may treat — not a verbatim copy of the FDA-approved label).

- How much does Heparin Lock Flush cost?
- Nobody can tell you what you will pay — your price is set by your insurer's formulary, your deductible and the pharmacy's markup, and none of those are published. What IS published is what the pharmacy paid to acquire it: about $2.12 per ml, per the CMS NADAC survey. Treat that as the floor, not the quote — ask the pharmacist for the cash price as well as your copay, because for cheap generics the cash price often wins.
