Argatroban is used for:

Thinning the blood to prevent or treat blood clots in patients who have low platelet levels (thrombocytopenia) due to heparin use, or in patients undergoing a certain procedure (percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]) who have or are at risk for low platelet levels due to heparin use. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Argatroban is a thrombin inhibitor. It works by blocking the action of thrombin, which prevents blood clots from forming.

Do NOT use argatroban if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in argatroban
• you have severe bleeding
• you are currently taking heparin

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
