Hi,
Yes, they be taken together. Enoxaparin is an anticoagulant ('blood thinner') that helps prevent the formation of blood clots like deep vein thrombosis can be taken safely along with the combined oral contraceptive pills like cilest. There's no documented any harmful interactions between the two.
Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
