What is Xarelto used for?

Xarelto contains the medication rivaroxaban. This medication is used primarily to treat and prevent blood clots especially in the legs and in the lungs caused by deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE). DVT causes blood clots in the legs and often occurs after a long stay in hospital following a hip or knee replacement surgery when your movement may be limited. If you have been receiving treatment for blood clots over an extended period of time, Xarelto can also be used to lower your risk of DVT after treatment. Rivaroxaban is also used to prevent and treat blood clots in other parts of the body. Xarelto may also be prescribed to treat pulmonary embolism which is blood clots of the lungs. Xarelto has other uses and may also be used to lower the risk of a stroke caused by blood clots for people with the heart rhythm disorder atrial fibrillation. When used along with aspirin, Xarelto lowers the risk of serious heart problems in people with coronary heart disease or peripheral artery disease such as strokes or heart attacks.

How does Xarelto work?

Xarelto is an anticoagulant. Anticoagulants are often known as blood thinner medications although they don’t actually make the blood thinner. Xarelto works by blocking certain clotting proteins within your blood therefore interrupting the forming of blood clots. Unlike some other blood thinner meds, rivaroxaban doesn’t require regular blood tests or dose changes.
