Xarelto 20mg How To Work

Xarelto 20mg Tablet is a novel oral anticoagulant (NOAC). It works by preventing the formation of blood clots in the body.

What Is Xarelto 20mg

Rivaroxaban blocks the activity of certain clotting substances in the blood.

Rivaroxaban is used to prevent or treat a type of blood clot called deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which can lead to blood clots in the lungs (pulmonary embolism). A DVT can occur after certain types of surgery.

Rivaroxaban is sometimes used to lower your risk of a DVT or PE coming back after you have received treatment for blood clots for at least 6 months.

Rivaroxaban is also used in people with atrial fibrillation (a heart rhythm disorder) to lower the risk of stroke caused by a blood clot.

If you have kidney problems, your doctor may decide to reduce the dose for the treatment after 3 weeks to one 15 mg tablet once a day if the risk for bleeding is greater than the risk for having another blood clot.
