North America is dominating the global anticoagulants market outlook due to a combination of high disease prevalence, advanced healthcare infrastructure, and robust research and development initiatives. The increasing prevalence of cardiac disorders, especially atrial fibrillation and thromboembolic complications, has created a need for efficient anticoagulant treatments. Moreover, the presence of a number of large pharmaceutical players allows for faster innovations and marketing of therapies including NOACs. The existing regulatory infrastructure and availability of modern medical technologies assist this region in maintaining its market superiority. In addition, the growth of the global anticoagulants market in North America is further supported by the improved emphasis placed on preventive care by healthcare providers and patients. 

The Asia-Pacific region is the fastest-growing in the global anticoagulants market, driven by a rapidly aging population and an increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, including atrial fibrillation and thrombosis. The increasing cost of health care coupled with better availability of advanced medical care is spurring the use of new anticoagulant therapies including NOACs and LMWHs. In addition, there is increasing awareness of thromboembolic disorders and their risks, which will drive screening and early diagnosis of these disorders. In this regard, the region has shown significant growth due to the developing economies of the region investing in the healthcare system and availing of more cutting-edge therapies, making the Asia-Pacific region one of the major markets for the growth of the global anticoagulants market.
