In summary, the new oral anticoagulants represent a giant step forward in the quest to replace warfarin. In addition to their enhanced convenience, the new agents are not only safer than warfarin because of the reduced risk of intracranial bleeding, but they also have the potential to be more effective.
Warfarin is also used to treat or prevent venous thrombosis (swelling and blood clot in a vein) and pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lung). Warfarin is in a class of medications called anticoagulants ('blood thinners'). It works by decreasing the clotting ability of the blood. Phytonadione (vitamin K) is used to prevent bleeding in people with blood clotting problems or too little vitamin K in the body.
