ALERT! THESE PILLS CAN CAUSE THROMBI, CLOTS AND ..
1. Rising Medication Concerns
Global health alerts have prompted the removal of some drugs—such as hormonal contraceptives,
anti-inflammatories, diet pills, and rare COVID-19 treatments—because of serious cardiovascular risks.
Authorities urge patients to stay updated and consult doctors about safety.
2. How Clots Become Dangerous
A major issue involves abnormal thrombi. While natural clotting stops bleeding,
clots forming inside veins or arteries can be life-threatening, leading to blocked blood flow and organ damage.
Officials warn these drugs may raise the chance of “blood clots, strokes, and heart attacks.”
3. Types of Complications
Clots can trigger pulmonary embolism, causing sudden breathlessness and chest pain;
deep vein thrombosis, marked by leg swelling and redness; strokes when a clot stops blood flow to the brain;
and heart attacks when coronary arteries are blocked.
4. Staying Alert
Regulators stress that “awareness and timely medical intervention are critical.”
Patients should know warning signs and review risks with healthcare professionals.
