Eliquis (generic name Apixaban) is commonly used as an anticoagulant for the treatment of venous thromboembolic events, and helps to reduce the extent of blood clotting, in the treatment or prevention of strokes or systemic embolisms. Read more about Eliquis and the conditions it treats.

Eliquis is approved for use in treating:

  • Deep vein thrombosis 
  • Pulmonary embolism
  • Stroke and blood clots 
  • Recurrence of PE of DVT

Please take time to read the manufacturer’s Product Insert that comes with the medication. Not all side effects are listed here. Consult a healthcare provider if you experience these or other unexpected effects.

Along with its needed effects, apixaban (the active ingredient contained in Eliquis) may cause some unwanted effects. Although not all of these side effects may occur, if they do occur they may need medical attention. Check with your doctor immediately if any of the following side effects occur while taking Apixaban: Blood in the eyes, blood in the urine, bloody or black, tarry stools. Bruising or purple areas on the skin, confusion, constipation, coughing up blood, decreased alertness, difficulty swallowing, dizziness, fainting, fast heartbeat, headache, hives, itching, joint pain or swelling, nausea and vomiting, nosebleeds, puffiness or swelling of the eyelids or around the eyes, face, lips, or tongue. Redness of the eye. Severe stomach pain, shortness of breath, skin rash, tightness in the chest, unusual tiredness or weakness, vomiting of blood or material that looks like coffee grounds.

Eliquis (apixaban) is a blood thinner medicine that reduces blood clotting and reduces the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. Eliquis belongs to a class of medicines called anticoagulant medications. Read more here about how the available alternatives treat atrial fibrillation, and here for an in-depth discussion of the dangers coming from blood clots.

CYP3A4 inhibitor drugs such as Serzone, Sporanox, Nizoral, Vfend, Reyataz, Biaxan and Ketek should not be taken while a patient is taking Eliquis. Patients may have a higher risk of bleeding if Eliquis is taken alongside other medicines that increase the risk of bleeding, such as aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), warfarin (Coumadin), heparin, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), and other medicines to help prevent or treat blood clots.

  • How does Eliquis work?

    Eliquis is one of the direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) drugs that work as blood thinners. The main ingredient apixaban works as an anticoagulant to block the action of specific clotting proteins in the blood.The DOAC class of drugs offer significant benefits due to the speed of the desired onset of anticoagulation, making them more effective than warfarin for preventing strokes and blood clots, at a lower risk of bleeding in the brain.
  • How do I take Eliquis?

    Eliquis should be taken strictly as prescribed. Usually, it is meant to be taken twice each day, each dose separated by approximately twelve hours. Mornings and nights are standard dosing practice. Eliquis can be taken by mouth with or without food. The tablet can be crushed and mixed with water, apple juice, or applesauce.
  • What should I do if I miss a dose of Eliquis?

    If one dose is missed, it should be taken as soon as possible - as long as there are more than six hours before the next scheduled dose. If it is less than six hours until the next dose, the manufacturer’s recommendation (found in the package insert) is to skip the missed dose and taking the next dose at the scheduled time.
  • Can I take Eliquis if I have a bleeding disorder?

    Eliquis is a blood thinner and can seriously affect people with bleeding disorders. The prescribing doctor needs to be fully aware of the complete medical history when Eliquis is prescribed and will have decided that the specific benefits of Eliquis outweigh all of its risks for this patient.
  • Can I take Eliquis if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

    Pregnant or breastfeeding women should not take Eliquis. The manufacturers recommend that if a pregnancy is expected or planned, the patient’s healthcare provider should be informed, and anyone becoming pregnant while taking Eliquis should inform their healthcare provider immediately.
