inhibit COX pathway (production of thromboxanee) and IMPAIRS platelet aggregation.
NSAIDs (asiprin, ibuprofen ect.) and P2RY12 inhibitors (plavix/clopigogrel)
major antiplatelet agents seen in dental practice
decrease vitamin K producing bacteria
how do antibiotics increase bleeding risk
2.0-3.0
target range of anticoagulation with warfarin
warfarin/coumadin
PT/INR is most useful when assesing bleeding risk in a patient treated with which medication
low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin/lovenox)
A type of anticoagulant that inhibits factor Xa and is used for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders.
