Detailed explanation-1: -Anticoagulants decrease your blood’s ability to clot and prevent additional clots from forming. Anticoagulant medications include: Aspirin. Warfarin (Coumadin® or Jantoven®), a tablet you swallow.
Detailed explanation-2: -Overview. Hemophilia is a rare disorder in which the blood doesn’t clot in the typical way because it doesn’t have enough blood-clotting proteins (clotting factors). If you have hemophilia, you might bleed for a longer time after an injury than you would if your blood clotted properly.
Detailed explanation-3: -Doctors use anticoagulants, commonly called blood thinners, to treat blood clots. These medications slow the time it takes for blood to clot and also prevent growth of a clot. Therefore, anticoagulants prevent further clotting in most patients.
