What are the drugs for blood thinning
Before starting treatment, you need to understand the reasons why you needed to influence the density of blood. Sometimes it is enough to only slightly increase the amount of fluid consumed to feel better. Especially it concerns the hot season and people with high physical stress. It should be understood that drugs for liquefaction of blood with thrombophlebitis and drugs for liquefaction of blood in hypertension not only have a different pattern of action, but also vary significantly in the effect. There are two main groups of drugs that dilute blood:
- Medicines-anticoagulants. This category of drugs prevents excessive blood clotting. They are prescribed for occlusion of vessels, hypertension, increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Such drugs are good for dilution of blood in varicose veins. The action in this case is based on their ability to instantly reduce the viscosity of the blood.
- Medicines-antiplatelet agents. With the help of antiplatelet agents, one can quickly and effectively cope with thrombosis, thrombophlebitis and other diseases caused by impaired platelet production. These pharmacological agents do not allow platelets to stick together, thereby preventing the formation of blood clots.
