Acenocoumarol API

Product Description

Acenocoumarol is an anticoagulant that functions as a vitamin K antagonist (like warfarin). An anticoagulant is a substance that prevents coagulation; that is, it stops blood from clotting. A group of pharmaceuticals called anticoagulants can be used in vivo as a medication for thrombotic disorders. Some chemical compounds are used in medical equipment, such as test tubes, blood transfusion bags, and renal dialysis equipment. Anticoagulants are given to people to stop thrombosis (blood clotting inappropriately in the blood vessels).

This is useful in primary and secondary prevention of deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarctions and strokes in those who are predisposed.
