The anticoagulant warfarin acts by blocking the enzyme that activates vitamin K. Question 5 options: True False

Select the correct statements. (Note that there may be more than one correct statement.)Group of answer choicesHeparin and warfarin effectively inhibit platelet aggregation.Heparin cannot be absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and therefore it is an injectable anticoagulant.Thrombolytic substances dissolve existing blood clots but cannot prevent their formation.One of the reasons Warfarin should not be administered in pregnancy is that it crosses the placenta and therefore may cause cerebral haemorrhage in the fetus during delivery.

The presence of a compound called ______ inhibits adherence of platelets to endothelial cells lining blood vessel walls.Multiple choice question.antithrombinprostacyclinheparin

In the context of warfarin therapy, characterized by its narrow therapeutic index and dependence on vitamin K-dependent clotting factor synthesis inhibition, what is the correct course of action when potential CYP inducers or inhibitors are introduced?*1 pointA) Increasing the dose of warfarin is necessary when potential CYP inducers are introduced.B) Warfarin's therapeutic index widens when potential CYP inhibitors are introduced.C) Frequent INR measurements is required for adequate monitoring in the presence of CYP inducersD) Achieving a therapeutic level of warfarin is a rapid process, typically occurring within a day.E) Heparin is contraindicated when potential CYP inducers are introduced.F) Stable INR levels indicate that the patient does not require additional monitoring in the presence of potential CYP inducers or inhibitors.
