Thank you so much for going through what to watch for in terms of bleeding with Eliquis. I will never forget. I asked my cardiologist when he prescribed Eliquis to me how will I know if it causes bleeding? His answer was, oh you'll know it. That was it! I should send that cardiologist this video, but I no longer see him. By the way he was rated a top cardiologist in my area!

Excellent information, but why does everybody have to play annoying background filler music for what is basically an educational presentation?

@Sean. Hi Sean, could you give me some advice pls. I'm on rivaroxaban and have been for 7 years for a P.E the doctor's didn't know what caused my P.E but at that time I was a trucker and i was eating McDonald's 3days a week and kfc and subways for the other days. I was also drinking heavy and smoking heavy but now my lifestyle is completely different. I have spoken to my doctor and he says that i have to stay on the tablets for the rest of my life and I'm only 52 now. I'm getting bleeding sometimes and I was thinking of going down the natural way by taking garlic ginger ect. I'm a bit frightened to make the leap to natural blood thinners so do you have any advice for me pls.

Dental work. Check with your dentist to see how long before an extraction, cleanings, or fillings you will need to stop taking Eliquis.I've seen 24 hours to three days. After those procedures, you can go back on the Eliquis after 12 hours.

Yeah I seen to be tolerating it pretty well for AFib, and I also suffer from ulcerative colitis, but insurance doesn't want to cover the cost of eliquis so once this months supply runs out that the hospital sent with me when released, it'll be 700+ dollars a month for eliquis, or start taking pradaxa for 10 bucks a month, the insurance people said it'll be fine, lots of people take pradaxa, but in doing fine on eliquis, O well, lets see if we can break something with the cheap stuff first🙃

Great video, Sean, but I am still confused about how to monitor my intake of Eliquis. I have been so used to checking my INR for the past 10 years on Warfarin that I may become worried by not seeing if my ratio is between 2.0 and 3.0. I had to lower my ratio by not taking my Warfarin for a day or 2 which I did and got the number down to 1.5 which is borderline dangerously low for me. Would that number go up after a couple of days on the Eliquis?

Was told today by my cardiologist to take two 5mg tabs of Eliquis per day. I have AFIB, congestive heart failure, 3 severe leaking valves and aortic stenosis. I am 80 years old and have seen videos of others saying you should take two tablets of 2.5 mg per day, not two 5 mg. Is age a factor?

@dr.sandhiyaramasamy5956 2 месяца назад

Yes. Age is considered. Take 2.5 mg twice a day

@friederikefoster651 Год назад

i take Xarelto for AFIB, to reduce a blood Clot

@user-rg5vt9wi8q 8 месяцев назад

You're only describing the physical elements of the drug. Try talking about the financials of it.

@skismosis 5 месяцев назад

can i change from xarelto to Eliquis without nay real problems, due to the cost of Xarelto versus the cost of Eliquis generic form, i think we have it in the usa now ? maybe not, i hear it is cheaper out of pocket, i will lose mt insurance in june due to going part time at my work, Going on Social security due to health reasons but i am only 64 1/2 not full retirement yet, ? please help folks if you have an idea.

Results of maybe 60% protection against of stroke is a coin flip and for me not worth the price or the laundry list of side effects.

@armandhodge3258 Год назад

Is it ok take a Men’s Multivitamin while taking Eliquis? I want to make sure my immune system is staying healthy and boosted while on this medication.

@elenapalmieri9136 4 месяца назад

Does eliquis need to be taken twice a day or can you take it just once per day ?

@shawnlennen7871 2 года назад

Can you reclot on eliquis

@LoboLynx 2 года назад

In general, patients can re-clot if doses are missed, and even if adherence is perfect, there are cases where patients still re-clot for not fully understood reasons.

@paulhughes7814 Год назад

Thanks so much for the info, very helpful. Is it normal for them to perscribe me to take 2 tablets twice daily for 7 days , then one tablet twice daily thereafter?

@LoboLynx Год назад

you're weclome! Yes that is commmon when treating a DVT or PE in the early stages. A higher dose is used to "bust the clot" for the first week only then it is followed by the 1 tab twice daily. Best wishes!
