How AFOGARTAN 75MG CAPSULE 10'S Works

  • AFOGARTAN 75MG CAPSULE 10'S inhibits a clotting protein called thrombin, preventing the formation of blood clots and reducing the risk of thromboembolic events.

This medication does not require routine blood monitoring, offering a more convenient treatment option for patients.
