Ximelagatran
Ximelagatran is an oral direct thrombin inhibitor (a prodrug converted to melagatran) that directly blocks the active site of thrombin, inhibiting both free and clot-bound thrombin to prevent fibrin formation and platelet activation. It was investigated as an alternative to warfarin for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation and treatment of venous thromboembolism. It was withdrawn from the market due to hepatotoxicity (elevated liver enzymes and liver failure) observed with prolonged use.
