A free-flowing anti-coagulant powder composition, the anti-coagulant composition containing heparin and a bulking agent that is lyophilized or spray dried and ground into a powder. The powdered anti-coagulant composition can be dry filled into syringes and other blood collections systems for rapid dissolution and mixing with collected blood sample without agitation of the container. The formulation may also retain a portion of the initial moisture, which may improve the shelf life and stability of the composition.
