Oral anticoagulants are a major therapeutic class of systemically absorbed antithrombotic medications administered orally to prevent and treat pathological blood clot formation.
They function by inhibiting critical components of the coagulation cascade, primarily through vitamin K antagonism to block clotting factor synthesis or via direct targeted inhibition of specific clotting enzymes such as factor Xa or thrombin.
Clinically, these agents are indicated for reducing the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, managing and preventing venous thromboembolism—including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism—and providing thromboprophylaxis in select cardiovascular and orthopedic settings.
