About this product

Overview

Eliquis 5mg Tablet contains the active ingredient Apixaban, which belongs to a class of medications known as anticoagulants or blood thinners. It is prescribed to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, as well as to prevent and treat blood clots in various conditions.

Active Ingredient

Apixaban: This medication works by inhibiting the activity of specific clotting factors in the blood, particularly factor Xa, which plays a key role in the formation of blood clots.

Uses

  • Prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation
  • Treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE)
  • Reduction of the risk of recurrent DVT and PE following initial therapy

Mechanism of Action

Apixaban exerts its anticoagulant effects by selectively inhibiting factor Xa, which interrupts the coagulation cascade and prevents the formation of blood clots.

Administration

Take Eliquis 5mg Tablet orally, with or without food, as directed by your healthcare provider. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on the specific condition being treated, as well as individual patient factors.
