The latest research results show that anticholinergic drugs produce a much higher risk of developing Alzheimers disease. I am taking Sintrom as a 'blood thinner' but don't wish to become a vegetable!

Hello, Margaret! How are you?

No, it is an anticoagulant, specifically a vitamin K antagonist.

The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and easy bruising.

Is there anything else I can help with?
