   Thrombosis, occurs when blood clots form within blood vessels and limit the flow of blood. Blood-thinning agents are divided into two groups, antiplatelet drugs and anticoagulants. They are indicated to facilitate smooth blood flow within blood vessels by preventing the formation of blood clots and retarding their growth. [34]

   The risk of bleeding is increased if used at the same time as other blood thinning drugs such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antiplatelet drugs and heparin. [2] The blood thinning effects can be reduced if used at the same time as rifampicin and phenytoin, and increased with fluconazole.

5. Antithrombotic - Wikipedia

   Different antithrombotics affect different blood clotting processes: Antiplatelet drugs limit the migration or aggregation of platelets. Anticoagulants limit the ability of the blood to clot. Thrombolytic drugs act to dissolve clots after they have formed.

   An anticoagulant, commonly known as a blood thinner, is a chemical substance that prevents or reduces the coagulation of blood, prolonging the clotting time. [1] Some occur naturally in blood-eating animals, such as leeches and mosquitoes , which help keep the bite area unclotted long enough for the animal to obtain blood.

   Blood thinners are used to prevent clots, these blood thinners have different effectiveness and safety profiles. A 2018 systematic review found 20 studies that included 9771 people with cancer. The evidence did not identify any difference between the effects of different blood thinners on death, developing a clot, or bleeding. [2]
