Application Number:	11/009,480
Patent Claims:	1. A method treating a disease or condition relating to blood coagulation or fibrinolysis comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically effective a amount of a p38 MAP kinase inhibitor chosen from the group: ##STR00011## ##STR00012## and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. 2.

The method according to one of claims 1-3 wherein the p38 MAP kinase inhibitor is provided in combination with one or more other anticoagulant or fibrinolytic agents. 5. The method according to claim 4 wherein the other anticoagulant or fibrinolytic agents are chosen from recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA), streptokinase (SK), urokinase (UK), proUK, heparin, enoxoparin, dalteparin, coumarin anticoagulants, aspirin, dipyrimidamole, aggrennox, ticlopidine, clopidogrel (Plavix), abciximab, RheoPro, integrilin, and aggrestat.
