Dabigatran etexilate-d₁₃ 

Dabigatran etexilate-d₁₃ is the deuterium labeled Dabigatran etexilate. Dabigatran etexilate (BIBR 1048) is an orally active proagent of Dabigatran. Dabigatran etexilate has anticoagulant effects and is used for the prophylaxis of venousthromboembolism and stroke due to atrial fibrillation[1].

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
