Patient summary
Rivaroxaban 10 mg, 15 mg and 20 mg tablets, an anticoagulant used to treat and prevent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism and to prevent stroke in atrial fibrillation.
Mechanism of action
Rivaroxaban acts as a highly selective, direct inhibitor of Factor Xa. By interrupting the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of the blood coagulation cascade, it inhibits thrombin formation and thrombus development.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Contraindicated due to bleeding risk. Breastfeeding: Not recommended during treatment.
Rivaroxaban is an anticoagulant (blood thinner) that blocks factor Xa, a step in blood clotting. It is used to treat and prevent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, to prevent clots after hip or knee replacement and to prevent stroke in atrial fibrillation. It comes as 10, 15 and 20 mg tablets; the original brand is Xarelto.
Do not stop taking rivaroxaban without talking to your doctor: stopping raises the risk of clots and stroke, and your doctor may need to prescribe another anticoagulant instead (MedlinePlus). Bleeding is its main risk, so tell any doctor or dentist that you take it.
Buying Rivaroxaban online
