Medical Conditions - Blood Thinner

Blood thinners help prevent blood clots in blood, thus allowing your blood to flow smoothly through the veins and arteries. Blood clots can stop the blood flow to your vital organs like the heart and brain, and cause heart attack and stroke. They prevent blood clots by either blocking the platelets in the blood to stick together (antiplatelet) or by increasing the clotting time (anticoagulants).
