Composition of Acitrom 3 Tablet

Acitrom 3 Tablet contains Acenocoumarol (3mg). It belongs to the Vitamin K antagonist (coumarin derivative) class of medicines.

Uses of Acitrom 3 Tablet

Prevention and treatment of blood clots (venous thromboembolism such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism), prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in atrial fibrillation, prevention of thromboembolism in patients with prosthetic heart valves

Benefits of Acitrom 3 Tablet

In Prevention of heart attack
Acitrom stops blood cells clumping into a clot inside a narrowed heart artery, which is how most heart attacks begin. Taken every day, it lowers that risk considerably.
In Prevention of stroke
Acitrom lowers the chance of a clot forming and travelling to the brain, which is the commonest cause of stroke in people with heart disease or an irregular rhythm.
In Blood clots
Acitrom prevents an existing clot in a leg or lung from growing and stops new ones forming while the body clears the old one, reducing the risk of a dangerous clot reaching the lungs.

How Acitrom 3 Tablet works

Acenocoumarol is a vitamin K antagonist anticoagulant. It inhibits vitamin K–dependent clotting factor synthesis (factors II, VII, IX and X) in the liver. This reduces blood clot formation and helps prevent harmful clots from growing or forming.

How to take Acitrom 3 Tablet

Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily at the same time each day. Dose is individualized based on INR/PT results; do not change dose or stop abruptly without medical advice. Can be taken with or without food; maintain a consistent diet with respect to vitamin K intake and attend regular INR monitoring.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
