Identify the factors which decrease the effect of Oral anticoagulants_______________?
Correct answer: E. Both A & B
- A. Pregnancy
- B. Nephrotic syndorme
- C. Newborn
- D. Liver disease
- E. Both A & B
Explanation
Pregnancy and nephrotic syndrome can reduce the apparent effect of oral anticoagulants because both are associated with a hypercoagulable state and altered anticoagulant handling. Liver disease generally increases anticoagulant sensitivity by reducing clotting-factor synthesis rather than decreasing the drug effect.
