RIVARED 10 (Rivaroxaban (10mg))

RIVAred 10 Tablet is classified as an anticoagulant, commonly referred to as a blood thinner. Its primary function is to help prevent and treat the formation of blood clots, which can lead to severe conditions such as stroke and heart attack. This medication is particularly useful for individuals with irregular heart rhythms, known as atrial fibrillation, as it helps avert the formation of clots. Additionally, RIVAred 10 is prescribed to patients recovering from knee or hip replacement surgeries to mitigate the risk of clot development. It can be taken regardless of meals, but for optimal effectiveness, users should aim to take it at the same time daily. Some patients may need to continue this medication for extended periods, potentially for life, and any changes in dosage or discontinuation should only occur under medical advice. Stopping the medication abruptly may heighten the risk of cardiovascular incidents, including heart attacks and strokes, or lead to thrombosis. Lifestyle modifications such as avoiding smoking, maintaining a balanced diet, engaging in regular physical activity, and achieving a healthy weight can further lower the risk of clotting. It is essential to be aware of and report any unusual symptoms or side effects to a healthcare provider promptly. RIVAred 10 should not be administered to individuals with significant kidney or liver impairments, active bleeding, or those using other anticoagulant therapies. Moreover, regular blood monitoring is not required with this medication, unlike certain other anticoagulants.
