What is the main treatment of thrombosis?
Blood thinners.
These medicines, also called anticoagulants, help prevent blood clots from getting bigger. Blood thinners reduce the risk of developing more clots. Blood thinners may be taken by mouth or given by IV or an injection under the skin.
Thrombosis is a serious condition where one or more blood clots form in your blood vessels or heart. When this happens, the clot can block blood flow where it formed, or it can break loose and travel elsewhere in your body. If a moving clot gets stuck in a critical area, it can cause life-threatening conditions like stroke and heart attack.
