Bigatra 75mg Tablet belongs to a class of drugs known as anticoagulants or blood thinners used to prevent and treat the risk of stroke, heart attack in patients with atrial fibrillation (irregular heart rhythm) by reducing blood clot formation. Besides this, it is also used to prevent deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in leg veins), pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lung), and to reduce the risk of clots in people who have undergone knee or hip replacement surgeries. 

Bigatra 75mg Tablet contains Dabigatran etexilate that works by inhibiting the production of clotting factor Xa, also called thrombin. This prevents the conversion of fibrinogen (soluble protein) to fibrin (insoluble protein), thereby preventing blood clots formation. It makes the blood flow easily through the veins making it less likely to form a serious blood clot. Thus, Bigatra 75mg Tablet helps prevent blood clots thereby reducing the risk of heart attack/stroke.
