About Warf-1 Tablet 30’s
Warf-1 Tablet 30’s belongs to a class of drugs known as anticoagulants or blood thinner. Warf-1 Tablet 30’s is primarily used to prevent and treat deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in leg veins) and pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lung) by reducing the formation of a blood clot. Deep vein thrombosis is a medical condition in which blood clots form in deep veins usually in legs. Pulmonary embolism is a condition in which blood clot blocks the arteries in the lungs.
