What is Aminocaproic acid?

Aminocaproic acid (brand name: Amicar®, also known as epsilon-aminocaproic Acid) is a medication that blocks the breakdown of clots (fibrinolysis), thereby allowing clots to form and remain. This is most useful when preventing postoperative bleeding, especially in sighthounds (e.g., Whippets, Greyhounds, Silken Windhounds, Irish Wolfhounds).
