How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Anti ouquIunts for Heart Cases
sy Or. PETER }. sTElNcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I am
on the horns Of the proverbial
dilemma. MY husband has Just
recovered from q severe attack
Of coronary thrombosis. He had
Ia rough time. Complications
consisted Of embolisn due to
breaking on Of q small clot from
his heart.
Last night our doctor told
us that due to the severity Of
my husbands complications there
is a possibility they may recur.
For that reason he decided that
he was going to keep my hus-
band on a drug called dicumarol
for months-or even years. As
none Of US has ever heard of
that kind Of treatment, we Won
der II you will enlighten us. The
doctor says 1t has a slight ele-
ment Of danger. but when
weighed against the danger Of
further trouble. there is no ques-
ton that he must use 1t.
I'VE are, Of course, going
ahead with our doctors sug-
gestions; but are simply writing
to YOU for more complete in
formation. Mrs. L. F."
Answer-You show good judy
ment in going along with a doc
tor who has already proved him
self and brought your husband
through severe illness. BY this
time most people have heard of
the anti-coagulant (blood thin
ning) drugs used In the treat
ment and "after-treatment" Of
coronary thrombosis. The reason
for this is the publicity given to
President Eisenhower's heart at
tack. Newspaper reports told US
that his doctors had him on
anti-eoagulants for months after
his attack.
Now what Is an anti-coagu-
liant? 1t is q drug whose purpose
Is to prevent excess clothing of
blood within the blood vessel
itself. As coronary thrombosis is
due to q CLOTHING within the
coronary artery. you can see the
rationale Of using drugs to pre-
vent-if possible-this from hap
pening again. Among the most
commonly used are heparin and
dicumarol. The former is adj
ministered by needle into muscle
or vein. The latter is taken by
mouth. Because Of its rapid ac-
ton, heparin is usually given at
the outset Of the attack. It re-
quires q day or two for dicumarol
to get in its action. But once it
exerts its ood-thinning prop
critics, 1t Is the drug commonly
used by doctors to keep the pro-
thrombin level in the blood low
SO that CLOTHING will not ensue.
? These anti-coagulants are also
useful in other conditions: heart
disease with auricular fertilization
in which there have been emboli
thrown OF into other parts Of
the body; thrombosis (clot for
mation) Of arteries In the brain,
eye, intestines. or extremities.
They are also Of use in throm-
