What is Pradaxa?

Pradaxa is a blood thinner (anticoagulant) medication prescribed to adults to lower the chance of blood clots forming. Specifically, it’s used to:

• Lower the risk of blood clots that can cause strokes in people who have a medical condition called atrial fibrillation
• To treat and prevent blood clots forming in veins in the legs (deep vein thrombosis) or lungs (pulmonary embolism) 
• To help lower the risk of blood clots forming in veins in the legs (deep vein thrombosis) or lungs (pulmonary embolism) of people who’ve had hip replacement surgery

Pradaxa can be taken to treat existing blood clots and to reduce the chances of blood clots forming. It works by interrupting a step in the blood clotting process. You take Pradaxa as an oral capsule, usually twice a day.

Pradaxa active ingredients

The active ingredient in Pradaxa is called dabigatran etexilate mesylate, usually just called dabigatran. It’s a blood thinner (anticoagulant) that stops your blood from clotting. Your blood clots by going through a complex chemical reaction with multiple steps. Some steps of this reaction use enzymes to help change your blood from a liquid to a gel. One of these enzymes is called thrombin.

Dabigatran works by blocking thrombin. When you swallow Pradaxa, molecules of dabigatran are absorbed in your blood, where they bind to thrombin. This stops thrombin from working and blocks a step of the clotting process.
