Biochem/physiol Actions
Acenocoumarol is a warfarin analog, an anticoagulant that inhibits Vitamin K epoxide reductase. This results in depletion of the reduced form of vitamin K (vitamin KH2), limiting the gamma-carboxylation and subsequent activation of the vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X and anticoagulant proteins C and S, resulting in decreased prothrombin levels and the amount of thrombin generated.
