Is Xarelto a blood thinner?
Yes, Xarelto is a blood thinner. It is a medication that prevents the blood from clotting within the blood vessels. It also prevents the blood clots from recurring in the blood vessels. It may be prescribed to treat blood clots in the veins of the legs and in the blood vessels of the lungs.

Is Xarelto dangerous?
Xarelto has numerous beneficial effects, but it has a tendency to make you bleed more than normal come even with minor injuries as it reduces your blood’s clotting ability. Sometimes Xarelto may cause serious bleeding which may be dangerous and may need urgent medical attention. This risk may be higher in people taking Xarelto along with other blood thinning medications. Contact your doctor if you notice even minor bleeding.

What is Xarelto 15mg used for?
Rivaroxaban is used to prevent blood clots from forming due to a certain irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) or after hip or knee replacement surgery. It is also used to prevent blood clots from forming in high-risk patients with limited mobility during their hospital stay and after discharge.

Which blood thinner is the safest?
Safer Blood-Thinning Drugs to Prevent Stroke The newer medications are Pradaxa (dabigatran), Xarelto (rivaroxaban), Eliquis (apixaban), and most recently Savaysa (edoxaban) — which work by preventing pooled blood in the heart from clotting. Unlike warfarin, the newer drugs are safer and easier for patients to use.

What foods should you avoid if you are on blood thinners?
Avoid taking grapefruit and grapefruit juice while taking Xarelto. The reason being, grapefruit contains compounds that slow down the metabolism of Xarelto and increase the activity leading to bleeding. On the other hand, if you are taking some other blood thinner like warfarin, you should avoid taking any food that increases the activity of vitamin K or increases the clotting of blood. Such food items may include spinach, brussels, sprouts, mustard greens, broccoli, asparagus and green tea. However, the use of these food items is not restricted with Xarelto.
