What is the difference between thrombolytic agents and fibrinolytic agents and anticoagulant agents?
"anticoagulant prevents the platelet to clot in the vessels whereas antithrombotic lyse the clot formed inside the vessels. The letter break down the clots inside vessels and the former prevent it from happening."That is not correct.Antithrombotic is any medication that decreases clots in the body (by dissolving already formed clots or preventing clot formation). This includes the drug classes anticoagulants, antiplatelets, and thrombolytics.Anticoagulant- primarily prevents formation of a clot, not dissolve a clot already formed, but help to prevent further propagation of a clotAntiplatelet- prevent platelet aggregationThrombolytic- decrease clot size and help dissolve clots already formed
