Apigat Apixaban is an anticoagulant medication used to prevent and treat blood clots. Each tablet contains 2.5 mg of Apixaban, a direct factor Xa inhibitor that effectively reduces the risk of thromboembolic events.
Key Features:
- Mechanism of Action: Apixaban selectively inhibits factor Xa, an essential enzyme in the coagulation cascade. This action helps prevent the formation of blood clots and reduces the risk of stroke in patients with certain heart conditions.
- Indications: Apigat is indicated for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, as well as for the treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).
- Dosage: Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for the appropriate dosage and duration of treatment. The dosing may vary based on individual patient factors, including renal function and risk factors for bleeding.
- Administration: The tablets should be taken orally, with or without food. It’s important to take them consistently at the same time each day.
- Side Effects: Common side effects may include bleeding, bruising, nausea, and liver enzyme elevations. Contact your healthcare provider if you experience any unusual bleeding or severe side effects.
- Precautions: Not suitable for individuals with active bleeding or severe hypersensitivity to Apixaban. Always inform your healthcare provider of your complete medical history, including any medications you are taking.
