Factor Xa inhibitor
Factor Xa inhibitors are a class of anticoagulant medications that target and inhibit factor Xa, a crucial enzyme in the coagulation cascade. Factor Xa plays a pivotal role in the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin, a key step in blood clot formation. By inhibiting factor Xa, these drugs prevent the formation of thrombin and subsequent blood clotting. Factor Xa inhibitors are used in the prevention and treatment of various thromboembolic disorders, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and stroke associated with atrial fibrillation. They are also utilized in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery to reduce the risk of post-operative DVT. Examples of factor Xa inhibitors include rivaroxaban, apixaban, edoxaban, and betrixaban.
