Agrylin

Information, Symptoms, Treatments and Resources

What is Agrylin?

Generic Name: anagrelide
Other Brand Names: anagrelide, Anagrelide Hydrochloride
Anagrelide lowers the number of blood clotting cells (platelets) in the body, which helps prevent blood clots from forming.
Anagrelide is used to treat a condition called thrombocythemia (also called thrombocytosis). Thrombocythemia is a blood cell disorder in which too many platelet cells are produced, causing bleeding or blood-clotting problems.
Anagrelide may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
