What is Pradaxa? 

Pradaxa (dabigatran etexilate mesylate) is an oral direct thrombin inhibitor indicated to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic blood clots among patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. This drug works by impeding thrombus formation through the inhibition of thrombin from converting fibrinogen into fibrin during the coagulation cascade. As a result, it could treat and prevent deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. 

The medication is available in 75 mg and 150 mg capsules.
