How it works

It contains an active ingredient called warfarin. It is a synthetic, anticoagulant agent which belongs to the coumarin family of anticoagulants. Some people refer to anticoagulants as blood thinners.

Anticoagulants are used as treatment for certain blood vessel, heart and lung conditions.
