Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Anisindione prevents the formation of active procoagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X, as well as the anticoagulant proteins C and S, in the liver by inhibiting vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylase, the enzyme responsible for vitamin K-mediated gamma-carboxylation of precursor proteins.
