Apismart 5mg (generic apixaban) 50 tablets

Apixaban is an anticoagulant medication used to treat and prevent blood clots and to prevent stroke in people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation through directly inhibiting factor Xa. Specifically, it is used to prevent blood clots following hip or knee replacement and in those with a history of prior clots. It is also used as an alternative to warfarin and does not require monitoring by blood tests or dietary restrictions.

Apixaban is indicated for the following:

• To lower the risk of stroke and embolism in people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prevention. DVTs may lead to pulmonary embolism (PE) in knee or hip replacement surgery patients
• Treatment of both DVT and PE
• To reduce the risk of recurring DVT and PE after initial therapy

In the EU, apixaban is indicated for the prevention of venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in adults who have undergone elective hip or knee replacement surgery, the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) with one or more risk factors, for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) in adults, and for the prevention of recurrent DVT and PE in adults.
