About this product

Overview

Oxaban 15mg Tablet contains Rivaroxaban as its active ingredient. Rivaroxaban is a member of the direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) class of medications and acts as a selective inhibitor of factor Xa. It is prescribed for the prevention and treatment of various thromboembolic conditions, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib). Rivaroxaban works by interfering with the blood clotting cascade, thereby reducing the risk of clot formation and subsequent complications.

Uses

  1. Prevention of Stroke and Systemic Embolism in AFib: Oxaban 15mg Tablet is used to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AFib).
  2. Treatment of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE): It is indicated for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) to prevent the recurrence of blood clots and associated complications.
  3. Reduction of Risk of Recurrent DVT and PE: Oxaban 15mg Tablet may be prescribed for the prevention of recurrent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) following initial treatment.

Oxaban 15mg Tablet should be taken orally once daily with or without food, as directed by your healthcare provider. The dosage and duration of treatment may vary depending on the specific indication, individual patient factors, and renal function.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take for Oxaban 15mg Tablet to work?

Rivaroxaban starts working within a few hours of administration, with peak plasma concentrations reached within 2 to 4 hours after oral ingestion. However, its anticoagulant effects may persist for up to 24 hours.

Can Oxaban 15mg Tablet be taken with other medications?

Rivaroxaban may interact with certain medications, including other anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and some antibiotics. Inform your doctor about all medications you are currently taking to avoid potential drug interactions.

Is routine monitoring of blood tests required with Oxaban therapy?

Routine monitoring of blood tests, such as international normalized ratio (INR) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), is not required with rivaroxaban therapy, as it has predictable pharmacokinetics and does not significantly affect these laboratory parameters.

What should I do if I miss a dose of Oxaban 15mg Tablet?

If you miss a dose of Oxaban, take it as soon as you remember on the same day. However, if it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.

Can Oxaban 15mg Tablet be used in patients with renal impairment?

Rivaroxaban is primarily eliminated through the kidneys, and its clearance may be reduced in patients with renal impairment. Dose adjustment may be necessary in patients with moderate to severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease. Consult your doctor for personalized dosing recommendations.
