XARELTO 10MG TAB

Xarelto 10mg Tablet is a medicine known as an anticoagulant or blood thinner. It helps prevent and
treat blood clots. It is used to reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. It prevents and treats clot
formation in the veins of your legs, lungs, brain and heart.
Xarelto 10mg Tablet is commonly used in patients with irregular heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation) to
prevent clot formation. It also reduces the risk of getting clots in people who have undergone knee or
hip replacement surgeries. It may be taken with or without food. Take it at the same time each day for
maximum benefits. You may need to take this medicine for many years, even for life in some cases. Do
not stop taking it or change the dose without guidance from your doctor. It could quickly put you more
at risk of having a heart attack, stroke, or thrombosis (formation of a blood clot within a blood vessel).
You can reduce your risk of having a blood clot by making changes to your lifestyle, such as not
smoking, eating a healthy diet, getting regular exercise, and losing weight if you need to.
The most common side effect of Xarelto 10mg Tablet is bleeding more easily than normal, for example,
having nosebleeds or bruising. If you experience any symptoms, tell your doctor immediately. Do not
take this medicine if you have severe kidney or liver problems, if you are currently bleeding or if you
are taking other medicines to reduce blood clotting. You should not breastfeed while using this
medicine. Unlike other anticoagulants, a regular blood test (PT-INR) is not required while taking this
medicine.
