How each medicine works
Medicines in this body system: 7 · in a drug class: 3 · drug classes: 2
| Apixaban — Selective inhibitor of free and clot-bound factor Xa and prothrombinase, independent of antithrombin III; decreases thrombin generation. |
| Clopidogrel — Prodrug; active metabolite irreversibly binds P2Y12 ADP receptors on platelets, inhibiting platelet activation and aggregation. |
| Ferrous Sulfate — The selected label does not state a molecular mechanism. |
| Folic Acid — Precursor of tetrahydrofolic acid, a cofactor in purine and thymidylate synthesis; converts megaloblastic to normoblastic marrow. |
| Cyanocobalamin — Converted to coenzyme B12; needed for methylmalonate-to-succinate conversion and methionine synthesis, regenerating tetrahydrofolate. |
| Rivaroxaban — Selectively inhibits free factor Xa and prothrombinase activity without antithrombin, decreasing thrombin generation. |
| Warfarin — Inhibits synthesis of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors II, VII, IX and X and anticoagulant proteins C and S. |
