"Der Patient erhielte eine Antibiotikatherapie mit Cerufoxim, sowie weiterhin Marcumarpause, stattdessen Nadroparin." There is no other mention of Marcumar in the document.

Marcumar: ein blutgerinnungshemmendes bzw. blutverdünnendes Medikament, ebenso Nadroparin. Dies nur als Laie. Marcumar wird mit Nadroparin substituiert.

Marcumar treatment was suspended

Could work with some rephrasing....

agree langnet : Bestätige ich als Laie. Meine Großmutter, die wg. eines angeborenen Herzfehlers 3x am offenen Herzen operiert wurde (Herzklappen), erhielt das blutverdünnende - und gerinnungshemmende - Medikament Marcumar. Bei anderen Therapien vorher abzusetzen.

kept off Falithrom/suspension of Falithrom treatment was continued

I think the clue is in "sowie weiterhin" - in other words phenprocoumon was discontinued at some point in the past and that discontinuation (and substituted with nadroparin).

Solutions? How about "suspension of Falithrom treatment (in favour of Nardoparin) was continued". Or "The patient was kept of Falithrom but Nadroparin was used instead".

Phenoprocoumon if you want the generic name.
Peer comment(s):

agree MMUlr : Phenprocoumon, to make sure that the reader will understand ... and Falithrom, if this is the tradename understood in every English-speaking country. IMO Marcumar would not be understood. 'weiterhin' may just mean 'beside the Antibiotikatherapie'.
