Acenocoumarol is an analog of the oral anticoagulant warfarin that functions by inhibiting vitamin K epoxide reductase, an enzyme that has a critical role in enabling blood coagulation.1 It is a brief-acting compound with a half-life of about eight hours in plasma, which is four times shorter than that of warfarin.2
