What are the unique considerations for anticoagulant therapy in patients with thyroid disorders, and how do thyroid hormone levels influence treatment efficacy?
Thyroid disorders can affect the metabolism of anticoagulants, necessitating careful dose adjustments. Hypothyroidism can slow drug clearance, increasing bleeding risk, while hyperthyroidism may accelerate it, reducing efficacy.
