Fluindione is a vitamin K antagonist anticoagulant (coumarin derivative) that was historically used for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders, such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. It has been largely withdrawn or replaced by other anticoagulants in most countries and is not widely used today.
Pharmacokinetic parameters estimated for a typical adult following oral administration (estimates; no referenced clinical PK source found).
