Description of Apigat 2.5 mg
Apigat 2.5mg features apixaban, a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) used to prevent and treat blood clots in conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Apixaban works by selectively inhibiting Factor Xa, a crucial enzyme in the blood coagulation process, thereby preventing thrombus formation. This medication is typically administered orally twice daily, with or without food. Adherence to the prescribed regimen is essential for efficacy. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice and to monitor for potential side effects.
