ACITROM 3 is an oral anticoagulant that contains Acenocoumarol and is used to prevent the formation of harmful blood clots in the body. It helps reduce the risk of serious conditions such as Deep Vein Thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolism, and Stroke.

This medicine works by slowing down the blood clotting process, allowing blood to flow smoothly through the vessels and preventing clot-related complications. It is commonly prescribed for patients with clotting disorders, heart conditions, or those at risk of thrombosis.

ACITROM 3 should be taken exactly as advised by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food, but it is best to take it at a fixed time each day. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly without medical advice, as it may increase the risk of clot formation. Regular use is important to get maximum benefit, even if you feel well.

The most common side effect is bleeding. Contact your doctor immediately if you notice unusual bleeding such as blood in urine, stool, or vomit, or unusual bruising. If you are planning any surgery or dental procedure, inform your doctor as the medicine may need to be temporarily stopped. Regular monitoring through blood tests (INR) is necessary for safe use.
