Eliquis Tablets UK – Apixaban 2.5mg & 5mg

Eliquis Tablets contain apixaban, an oral anticoagulant used to help prevent harmful blood clots. Apixaban works by blocking Factor Xa, an important part of the blood-clotting process. In the UK, apixaban tablets are prescription-only medicines and should be used only under the direction of a qualified healthcare professional.

Eliquis Tablets – Product Description

Apixaban is commonly prescribed for adults with certain conditions where reducing the risk of blood clots is clinically appropriate. These include prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in people with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and prevention of recurrent DVT or PE. It can also be prescribed following elective hip or knee replacement surgery for prevention of venous thromboembolic events.

The tablets are taken orally, with the dosage and treatment duration determined by the patient's medical condition, kidney function, age, body weight and other clinical factors. Patients should follow their prescription and the accompanying patient information leaflet rather than changing the dose themselves.
