Tiratricol and Antithrombin III

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS

Why this applies to Antithrombin III

Antithrombin III falls under ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS — the group Tiratricol interacts with.

Theoretically, tiratricol might increase the hypoprothrombinemic effects of oral anticoagulants.
Tiratricol is related to thyroid hormones such as levothyroxine. The hypoprothrombinemic effects of oral anticoagulants, including warfarin (Coumadin), are increased by levothyroxine due to increased catabolism of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. It is not known if tiratricol has a similar effect.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's an honest heads-up: the interaction we have on file is really about oral blood thinners like warfarin, where a thyroid-like compound such as tiratricol could theoretically make the blood thinner work harder by speeding up the breakdown of clotting factors. Antithrombin III (Thrombate III) is a bit different. It's an injected protein that replaces a natural clotting regulator your body may be low on, and it isn't broken down by the same vitamin K pathway. So this particular concern doesn't translate neatly to it.

That said, tiratricol itself is risky and FDA-warned, and pushing your thyroid system could affect your overall bleeding and clotting balance. Since this is theoretical only, please loop in your doctor or pharmacist before combining them.

About Tiratricol

What is Tiratricol?

  • Weight loss
  • Fat burning
  • Boosting metabolism
  • Bodybuilding and cutting
  • Thyroid-related supplementation

Tiratricol (also called TRIAC) is a powerful synthetic thyroid hormone metabolite, not a natural herb, and it has been illegally added to some weight-loss and bodybuilding supplements. It can cause serious heart and thyroid problems, and the U.S. FDA has warned consumers not to use products containing it. It is not a safe or approved dietary supplement, and you should avoid it.
