Just looked it up, wow some epic side effects possible!

I am on Xarelto ( for Artirial fib) which I have found to be way better than Warfarin!

And yes, reading the leaflet is a good idea!!!! Smile!

I’ve been on it eighteen months and it’s pretty weird but not toxic. I hope. Good luck with your treatment too.

Hi Ed, sorry to hear about your heart issue. Am very surprised that you were never told to take any aspirin based product ( ie. Ibuprofen) with blood thinner such as Warfarin or Xarelto.

Live and learn but not a nice way to learn!

Take care, rest and recover.

Atb. Les

Cheers, Les. It’s Apixaban I’m on and I’m sure at least one nurse told me to talk ibuprofen. It’s in the leaflet so it’s my fault.
