Anticoagulants
The most popular treatment used for blood clots is anticoagulants. They are also called blood thinners. They function by inactivating clotting factors and stopping preexisting ones from getting bigger. Anticoagulants can be administered in form of drugs or intravenous injections. Sometimes, doctors prescribe anticoagulants for only the clot’s time or longer to reduce the risk of new clots forming. Examples of anticoagulants include; Heparin and trisodium citrate
