Product Description
Dabiclot 150 Capsule, manufactured by Alkem Pharma, contains Dabigatran Etexilate Mesylate 150mg, an oral anticoagulant. It is prescribed for patients at risk of stroke or systemic embolism due to non-valvular atrial fibrillation, and for the treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).
This medicine works by inhibiting thrombin, an enzyme responsible for blood clot formation, thereby reducing the risk of dangerous clots in veins and arteries.
