Heparin is an anticoagulant medication used to prevent and treat blood clots. It works by inhibiting certain clotting factors in the blood, thereby reducing the formation of clots. Heparin is commonly administered in hospitals, especially during surgeries or for patients with conditions that increase the risk of thrombosis. It is available in both unfractionated and low-molecular-weight forms, each with specific uses and dosing protocols.
