What is Xarelto?
Xarelto (rivaroxaban) is a prescription anticoagulant (blood-thinning medication) and was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on July 2011, for three primary uses: 1. to reduce the risk of blood clots in patients with atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat); 2. recovery from knee or hip surgery; 3. and to treat deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). The FDA changed its boxed warning on Xarelto to alert doctors about potentially deadly side effects in March 2014. Black box warnings are the most serious type of warning issued by the FDA, and is reserved for drugs that carry a significant risk of serious or life-threatening adverse effects. Further, Xarelto has no known antidote, and there is no effective way of stopping the internal bleeding that can allegedly be caused by Xarelto.
What are Xarelto’s Risks and Side Effects?
Xarelto has been allegedly linked to an increased risk of serious bleeding in patients. According to the Institute for Safe Medications Practices, a “strong signal” indicated the risks of the prescription medication warranted an alert to the public and required further investigation by the scientific community.
Xarelto has been allegedly linked to the following dangerous side effects:
- Sudden and long-lasting bleeding, including nose bleeds, gum bleeding and excessive menstrual or vaginal bleeding;
- Red, pink or brown urine;
- Stools with a red or tar-like appearance;
- Coughing or vomiting blood;
- Headaches, dizziness and fatigue;
- Pain, swelling or bleeding at wound sites;
While all anticoagulant medications carry a risk of uncontrolled bleeding events, studies have suggested Xarelto’s risk to be higher than other blood-thinning medications.
