Apigat 2.5mg

Apigat 2.5 mg contains the active ingredient Apixaban, an anticoagulant prescribed for lowering the blood clots developing in patients who are suffering from a condition called atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat), as well as other risk factors for stroke. An embolism is a blood clot that blocks the passage of an artery. If the embolism develops in the arteries of the brain, it can give rise to a stroke. Apigat reduces the risk of forming a blood clot in the lungs and legs of people who have just had hip or knee replacement surgery. It is also effective in treating blood clots in the veins of your legs or lungs and reduces the risk of them occurring again. Anticoagulants slow down the time it takes for your blood to clot and reduce the risk of these events happening.
