Safely Buy Agrylin (Anagrelide) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Description

What is Agrylin? 

Anagrelide hydrochloride is the active ingredient of Agrylin; it belongs to the class of drugs called antiplatelets, which inhibits the maturation of platelets from a large bone marrow cell to reduce its production. This medication is used in treating thrombocytosis, a disorder where too many platelets are produced by the body caused by an underlying condition like an infection. Platelets are responsible for forming clots in the blood to stop or prevent bleeding; too much of it may cause problems in blood circulation like blood clots and bleeding problems.  

This medication can also be used in chronic myeloid leukemia, a type of cancer that starts in a blood-forming cell of the bone marrow, which produces an increased number of platelets. Agrylin works in these conditions by reducing the platelet count in the bloodstream and blocking its production.
