Anticoagulation


Many young people with half a working heart are prescribed an anticoagulant, a medicine that slows the bloods ability to clot, to help ensure that their blood moves smoothly around the body. The medication used can vary but it is very helpful if young people, parents, carers and teachers understand what being on anticoagulation means to everyday life. If you would like to know more about anticoagulation, you can download a copy from our information publications.
Remember that Little Hearts Matter members can ask for a hard copy for free and remember we are always available if you have questions, email us at info@lhm.org.uk or call on 01214558982.
