Warfarin is an anticoagulant medication commonly prescribed to prevent and treat blood clots by inhibiting the synthesis of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. It is used to reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other serious conditions in patients with conditions like atrial fibrillation, deep vein thrombosis, or pulmonary embolism. Regular blood monitoring is essential to ensure the correct dosage and minimize the risk of bleeding complications.
