Warfarin Uses | Indications

Warfarin is a blood thinning agent (anticoagulant) used to reduce the formation of blood clots (thrombosis) by inhibiting clotting factors in the body. It is indicated for prevention of disease associated with thrombosis including heart attacks, strokes, atrial fibrillation, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Embolism is an abnormal formation and migration of blood clots (thrombosis) where it would result in blocking supply to a vital organ. Warfarin is one of the most widely used and practised oral anticoagulant drug in North America.
