A type of medication used to "thin" the blood to help prevent heart attack and stroke Patients are often on these medications for extended periods of time to treat chronic conditions (ex : Coumadin)
Blood Thinners medications which reduce or impair the ability of the blood to form clots These medications are used to retard clot formation on artificial devices or in certain The most common medications are oral warfarin (or Coumadin®) and intravenous heparin
Drugs given by mouth or by vein to reduce the capacity of the blood to form blood clots
Medications that interfere with or inhibit blood from clotting are sometimes recommended for patients with atrial fibrillation or an artificial valve An example of a weak or mild anticoagulant is aspirin An example of a more powerful anticoagulant is warfarin or coumadin

anticoagulant
Substance that prevents blood from clotting by suppressing the synthesis or function of various clotting factors (see coagulation). Anticoagulants are given to prevent thrombosis and used in drawing and storing blood. There are two main types of anticoagulants: heparin and vitamin K antagonists (e.g., warfarin). The latter have longer-lasting effects, interfering in the liver's metabolism of vitamin K to cause production of defective clotting factors. Anticoagulant therapy carries a high risk of uncontrollable hemorrhage
anticoagulant
Affects immune system and reactivity due to its ability to prevent the clotting of blood
anticoagulant
{i} substance that prevents clotting, substance that prevents coagulation (Medicine)
anticoagulant
An anticoagulant inhibits the formation or action of one or more of the clotting factors involved in the sequence of reactions that cause blood to coagulate
