How long dvt treated?

Depends: Sometimes a DVT can be treated for as little as three months with blood thinners and sometimes it is longer, six months to a year. It depends on the location, extent, and internal improvement in the blood clot. A follow-up ultrasound can be helpful in determining how long it meets to be treated. I hope this helps.

Depends: The biggest question is whether you have a condition that caused the clot (ie cancer or a genetic condition) and if you had a pe associated with it--those conditions require longer (maybe forever) treatment.

Depends: Length of treatment for DVT depends on 1) where the DVT is located, 2) whether there was also a pulmonary embolism, and 3) if you have a condition that puts you at continued risk for DVT (e.g., blood clotting disorder, cancer, genetic predisposition to clotting, etc.). For patients without a continued risk for DVT current guidelines suggest at least 3 months of treatment, but sometimes longer.

Dvt: Anticoagulant therapy time frame is dependent on the highest location of the dvt,calf around 3 months,thigh 6 months and if pulmonary embolism at least a year

Time to treat DVT.: The duration of time necessary to treat DVT varies with the extent and location of the DVT as well as the relationship between the DVT and its cause (provoked or unprovoked). In general, the bigger the vein involved the longer the treatment and unprovoked (spontaneous) tend to be treated longer than provoked (caused by an underlying problem). The time can vary form 3 months to 1 year.
