What drug that is not an antibiotic is approved for the specific indication of sepsis because of its anticoagulant properties?

Xigris (Drotrecogin alfa) is not an antibiotic but is approved for the specific indication of sepsis because of its anticoagulant properties.

Xigris (Drotrecogin alfa) is a drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the reduction of mortality in adult patients with severe sepsis who have a high risk of death. Xigris (Drotrecogin alfa) is placed under the class of serine proteases and it has anticoagulant, anti-thrombotic, anti-inflammatory, and profibrinolytic properties.

Answer;

Drotrecogin Alfa (xigris)
