🩸 Why Blood Thinners Are So Carefully Monitored
The drugs that prevent clots — and can cause dangerous bleeding.
How blood thinners work in your body
- Blood thinners, medically known as **anticoagulants**, do not actually thin your blood.
- They work by blocking certain proteins that help your blood form clumps or **thrombi**.
- By slowing this process, they prevent dangerous blockages in your veins or arteries that could lead to a stroke or heart attack.
