Anticoagulant-Antiaggregant Drugs

Blood coagulation is a dynamic and complex process that limits blood loss from the site of vascular injury. In the physiological setting, this process is finely regulated so as to avoid vessel occlusion. Thrombosis refers to the pathological condition where the perfusion of the vital organ(s) is attenuated due to the occlusion of vessel(s) by blood clots and, in most cases, poses a life-threatening emergency. Drugs that are used for the treatment and prophylaxis of thromboembolic diseases are the subjects of this lecture.
