Anticoagulation Clinic

The UNM Anticoagulation Clinic is a pharmacist-run clinic focused on blood thinner medication. We are an Anticoagulation Center of Excellence.

If you have been prescribed Warfarin (Coumadin), Apixaban (Eliquis) or Rivaroxaban (Xarelto), ask your doctor for a referral to our clinic.

Our pharmacists will help you receive safe follow-up on your medication. We provide education and counseling, as well as:

  • Routine monitoring and dosage adjustment
  • Peri-procedural management
  • Risk/benefits for continued anticoagulation usage

We now also provide education and counseling for the new anticoagulants known as direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOAC). We assist with the switch to and from DOACs and warfarin. We serve as a help center for managing your new medication.
