🚨 HEART HEALTH SERIES – LESSON 6! 🚨

We’re moving to the Safety Net: Apixaban (a blood thinner). 🩸 This drug is different from your Quad Therapy, but just as vital!

Why is Apixaban prescribed to heart patients? It prevents blood clots, especially those caused by an irregular heartbeat (Atrial Fibrillation), which can lead to a stroke. 🧠

How it works: It blocks a clotting protein called Factor Xa.

The Big Risk: Bleeding.

Safety Rule: NEVER take common painkillers (like Ibuprofen) with Apixaban without consulting your specialist.

If you are on Apixaban, you must know the signs of serious bleeding! Read the full safety lesson:

APIXABAN (ELIQUIS®) INFORMATION FOR PATIENTS, FAMILIES & CARERS

APIXABAN helps to stop blood clots from forming. You need to tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any other medicines. This includes any vitamins or minerals, herbal supplements or medicines you bought without a prescription from a pharmacy, supermarket or health food store. It is a good idea to carry an up-to-date list of all your medicines. Consider wearing a medical alert bracelet.

Swallow the tablet whole. You can take it with or without food. Your pharmacist can put APIXABAN in a dose administration aid, such as a Webster Pak®.

Take your next tablet as soon as you remember. Then continue your APIXABAN as usual. If it is nearly time for your next tablet, do not take extra tablets to make up for the forgotten tablet. If you miss more than one tablet, or if you are unsure of what to do, talk to your doctor or pharmacist immediately.

Apixaban versus Warfarin in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation

Vitamin K antagonists are highly effective in preventing stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation but have several limitations. Apixaban is a novel oral direct factor Xa inhibitor that has been shown to reduce the risk of stroke in a similar population in comparison with aspirin.

In this randomized, double-blind trial, we compared apixaban (at a dose of 5 mg twice daily) with warfarin (target international normalized ratio, 2.0 to 3.0) in 18,201 patients with atrial fibrillation and at least one additional risk factor for stroke. The primary outcome was ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke or systemic embolism. The trial was designed to test for noninferiority, with key secondary objectives of testing for superiority with respect to the primary outcome and to the rates of major bleeding and death from any cause.

In patients with atrial fibrillation, apixaban was superior to warfarin in preventing stroke or systemic embolism, caused less bleeding, and resulted in lower mortality. (Funded by Bristol-Myers Squibb and Pfizer; ARISTOTLE ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00412984.)
