Introduction to Arganat 250mg Injection
Arganat 250mg injection is an anticoagulant with an active ingredient called Argatroban . It is used in the treatment of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). HIT is a rare but serious condition that can occur after exposure to heparin, a common blood thinner. It works by binding to the active site of thrombin, an enzyme that is essential for blood clot formation. This prevents thrombin from activating other clotting factors and forming clots.

Avoid taking this medicine if you have uncontrolled bleeding or severely impaired liver function. Notify your doctor if you have an increased risk of bleeding and recently had injections or infusions of other anticoagulants such as heparin.
