Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

6. Pregnant or breastfeeding

7. Known sensitivity or allergic response to Sodium Tetradecyl Sulfate (STS)

8. Known high risk of thrombosis

9. Known history of deep vein thrombus (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE), known history of acute superficial vein thrombus, known hypercoagulable condition, post thrombotic syndrome

10. Known history of anaphylaxis or presence of multiple severe allergies
