T45.5: Poisoning: Anticoagulants

Your body was damaged by a medication.

You have taken a medication that inhibits blood clotting.

The symptoms depend on how much the body has been damaged by the medication, among other things. You may feel nauseated and need to vomit. You may bleed more easily and more heavily than normal. Sometimes a blood clot forms that can block a blood vessel. You probably have circulatory problems.

  • G: Confirmed diagnosis
  • V: Tentative diagnosis
  • Z: Condition after
  • A: Excluded diagnosis
