C Gatran 110mg Tablet
Prescription RequiredProduct introduction
C Gatran 110mg Tablet is a medicine that helps prevent and treat blood clots. It is used for the treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), treatment and prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE), and to reduce the risk of stroke in people with certain heart rhythm problems such as atrial fibrillation.
C Gatran 110mg Tablet should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually at regular intervals each day to maintain a steady blood-thinning effect. Taking the medicine with food may help reduce stomach discomfort. Do not skip doses, because missing doses or stopping treatment early can increase the risk of clot formation or stroke. Regular follow-up visits and kidney function checks may be required to ensure the medicine is working safely and effectively.
The most common side effects of C Gatran 110mg Tablet are related to bleeding and stomach-related problems such as indigestion, abdominal discomfort, nausea, or stomach irritation. Mild bruising or minor bleeding, such as nosebleeds or bleeding gums, may occur because the medicine reduces the blood’s ability to clot. Contact your doctor if bleeding lasts longer than usual, becomes severe, or if you notice unusual symptoms such as black stools, blood in urine, or dizziness.
C Gatran 110mg Tablet can increase the risk of serious or sometimes life-threatening bleeding, so extra caution is needed during treatment. Do not stop taking this medicine without medical advice, as sudden discontinuation can increase the risk of stroke or clot formation. Inform your doctor before any surgery, dental procedure, or spinal injection, since the medicine may need to be temporarily stopped to reduce bleeding risk.
This medicine should not be used in people with active bleeding, severe allergy to the medicine, or mechanical heart valves. Certain medicines, especially other blood thinners, pain relievers such as NSAIDs, or drugs that affect P-glycoprotein, may increase bleeding risk and should only be taken after medical consultation. Patients with kidney problems or older adults may require closer monitoring because the drug stays longer in the body. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctors before taking this medicine to make sure it is safe for them.
Uses of C Gatran Tablet
Benefits of C Gatran Tablet
In Treatment and prevention of Deep vein thrombosis
C Gatran 110mg Tablet helps treat and prevent deep vein thrombosis, a condition in which blood clots form in the deep veins, usually in the legs. It works by preventing the clot from growing larger and reducing the chance of new clots forming. This helps improve blood flow, relieves symptoms such as pain and swelling, and lowers the risk of serious complications caused by clot movement.
In Treatment and prevention of Pulmonary embolism
In pulmonary embolism, a blood clot travels to the lungs and blocks blood flow, which can be life-threatening if untreated. This medicine helps stop existing clots from getting bigger and reduces the risk of new clots forming. Keeping the blood flowing more smoothly supports recovery, improves breathing symptoms, and helps prevent recurrence of pulmonary embolism.
In Prevention of Stroke
C Gatran 110mg Tablet helps reduce the risk of stroke caused by blood clots, especially in people with certain heart rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation. It prevents harmful clots from forming and traveling to the brain, where they could block the blood supply. When used regularly as prescribed, it helps protect brain function and lowers the risk of long-term disability associated with stroke.
