There is one exact (name or code) match for fondaparinux

 

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)



Fondaparinux is a synthetic and specific inhibitor of activated Factor X (Xa). By selectively binding to antithrombin III (ATIII), fondaparinux sodium potentiates (about 300 times) the innate neutralization of Factor Xa by ATIII. Neutralization of Factor Xa interrupts the blood coagulation cascade and thus inhibits thrombin formation and thrombus development. Fondaparinux is indicated for the prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which may lead to pulmonary embolism (PE): in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery, including extended prophylaxis; in patients undergoing hip replacement surgery; in patients undergoing knee replacement surgery; in patients undergoing abdominal surgery who are at risk for thromboembolic complications. The most serious adverse reactions reported with Fondaparinux are bleeding complications and thrombocytopenia. Agents that may enhance the risk of hemorrhage should be discontinued prior to initiation of therapy with Fondaparinux unless these agents are essential.

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)



Apixaban is an orally active inhibitor of coagulation factor Xa with anticoagulant activity. Apixaban directly inhibits factor Xa, thereby interfering with the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin and preventing formation of cross-linked fibrin clots. Apixaban has been available in Europe since May 2012. An FDA decision on apixaban which was expected on June 28, 2012 was initially delayed before final approval on December 28, 2012. On August 21, 2014, Pfizer announced that apixaban was now FDA approved for treatment and secondary prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). It is being developed in a joint venture by Pfizer and Bristol-Myers Squibb. It has also been used to lower the risk of developing venous thrombosis post-orthopedic surgical procedures.

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)



Rivaroxaban (trade name Xarelto) is an oral anticoagulant. It is the first available orally active direct factor Xa inhibitor. Upon oral administration, rivaroxaban selectively binds to both free factor Xa and factor Xa bound in the prothrombinase complex. This interferes with the conversion of prothrombin (factor II) to thrombin and eventually prevents the formation of cross-linked fibrin clots. Rivaroxaban does not affect existing thrombin levels. Activation of factor X to factor Xa (FXa) via the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways plays a central role in the cascade of blood coagulation. Xarelto is indicated to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, treatment and prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) which may lead to PE in patients undergoing knee or hip replacement surgery, pulmonary embolism (PE) and for the reduction in the risk of recurrence of deep vein thrombosis and of pulmonary embolism following initial 6 months treatment for DVT and/or PE.
