Comparing Eliquis to Warfarin In Atrial Fibrillation Patients

[@dogma7911]

Look at the research on this. Absolute reduction vs relative reduction are vastly different. They state a 50% reduction when deaths drop from 4% to 3%. The actual reduction was actually less then 1/2 of one percent.

[@MichaelMantion]

so 50 people have to be on the meds to save 1 life? Over what time frame?

I am an USAF veteran. I also worked 19 years for a department of Defense contractor at an army base. I am on medicare and yet i am disqualified from the $10 copay card. That is crazy since bristol-myers squibb net worth is 135 billion.

Reduction of bleeding? Bullshit!!! Eliquis, turned my poop black. Went to the cardiologist who had tests run and found there was blood in my poop and had me discontinue it. Another side effect I had was that it made my sweat, urine, and poop smell like a toxic dump. If you look up "odor of elimination on eliquis" you will see a blog with over 40 people who are experiencing the same thing. I was tired all the time and ached. Once I was taken off of Eliquis, I went back to normal with my poop going back to normal color and the terrible smells stopped. This stuff is terrible and alongside of that it is expensive.

I've had none of those symptoms.

[@SPEAKEASYAZ4895]

I have been on Eliquis for 3 months, totally dscusted over 1400.00 a year, and I have NOT noticed any symptoms, even before the meds.

[@oldieslover144]

I’m in the same boat.

[@meekah31]

My head be feeling numb 👀

[@michaelharrison2775]

I believe Eliquis is is the top dog out of all the thinners and as far as I know Eliquis will dissolve the clots not just prevent the formation

[@davidanderson8469]

True.

[@36742650885]

Can’t afford the crap, I got a free 30 day supply of eliquis, after that I’ll have to go back to asprin and hope for the best

[@hirmaniemathura746]

Should you give Coreg instead of eliquis

[@henrybird26]

What do you call major without facts and figures it could be anything.And the pharmaceutical companies have a tendency to play with numbers and the outcome is not accurate.

[@willgaukler8979]

...looking for good rx ... to get a discount ... but the interest in no more .... I . N. R blood draws color me interested ... otherwise it is out of my reach....

[@henrybird26]

what do you call major?

[@magnusterminus4728]

[@davidanderson8469]

Same here aside for minor bleeding and bruising

[@ericaford9740]

I enjoy taking this med.cuz for one you do not have to get your blood drown at all.but now since i being taken eliquis i am very scared now.cuz i am out.and the Dr.is given me a hard time now.so i don't know what to do now,until then.

[@michaelharrison2775]

I can't afford Eliquis so I have to do without so I'm living risky living now

How to treat patient taking warfarin if the blood test come thick high what should be the solution take the warfarin or stop the warfarin

[@davidanderson8469]

You have to eat the same food as the original level has shown. It's diluted rat poison.

[@cindylee2445]

Does it cause lowx red bloood count?

[@davidanderson8469]

Nope.

[@hirmaniemathura746]

Is Eliquis good for low blood pressure and thinning of the blood and also preventing of strokes

[@hoss4830]

It doesn’t prevent strokes….it lessens your chances but not enough for me to take this med or any blood thinner for matter.

[@BeahRobert]

Apixaban is very expensive
