eliquis 2.5 mg 20 tablets new

Eliquis is a prescription medication containing Apixaban, a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC). It works by inhibiting factor Xa, a key protein in the blood clotting process. It is primarily used to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, as well as to treat and prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Eliquis is known for its predictable pharmacokinetic profile and does not typically require routine blood monitoring, making it a preferred choice for long-term anticoagulation therapy in eligible patients.
