Heparin is normally given in low to high doses, to act prophalaxisly in the prevention of thrombosis.

You do not give PO doses of Heparin because it is not absorbed that way, and you do not give IM because of an increased risk for hematoma in the injection site. Heparin is best when given either IV or SubQ..
