New Blood Thinner Doesn’t Cause Bleeding. Wait, What?

Scientists developed a synthetic blood-thinner that doesn’t cause bleeding side-effects.

A recent EurekAlert! article discussed a new blood thinner that doesn’t cause the main side-effect of blood thinners: bleeding. Patients with thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or stroke are typically prescribed drugs that allow blood to flow smoothly through the body. These drugs are called anticoagulants, and they prevent blood clots from forming or getting bigger. However, they work by blocking enzymes that stop bleeding after an injury, therefore causing life-threatening bleeding in case of injury.
