Have a question about powdered blood clotting agents (quik clot). Have an acquaintance that is taking blood thinner for a medical condition. A small pin prick, while not immediately life threatening, can take a couple of hours for him to get the bleeding under control. A minor injury could very well be a life threatening situation for him. When i asked him if his Dr. recommended anything for controlling bleeding from an injury he said that his Dr. said don't get hurt. Would quik clot be an appropriate treatment for minor bleeding that can not be easily stopped?
