SKU GME1259Blood Care
Product Introduction
Dabigatran Etexilate Mesilate 75mg is an oral anticoagulant that helps prevent harmful blood clots. Dabigatran is used in selected regimens for stroke prevention in non-valvular atrial fibrillation and for treatment or prevention of venous thromboembolism; the capsule strength depends on the indication and kidney function.
How to use
Swallow the capsule whole with a full glass of water. Do not open, chew or crush it, because this increases drug exposure. It can be taken with food if it causes indigestion.
How it works
Dabigatran etexilate is converted to dabigatran, a direct inhibitor of thrombin. Blocking thrombin reduces fibrin formation and clot development.
Side effects
Bleeding, bruising, indigestion, stomach pain or nausea can occur. Vomiting blood, black stools, severe unexplained headache or bleeding that will not stop needs emergency care.
Important information
Kidney function strongly affects dabigatran levels. Other anticoagulants, antiplatelets and NSAIDs increase bleeding risk. Procedures, spinal injections and a mechanical heart valve require particular attention when choosing or interrupting anticoagulation.
Uses
- Anticoagulation for selected non-valvular atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism regimens.
Benefits
Reduces the risk of clot formation or recurrence where anticoagulation is indicated. It does not immediately dissolve an existing clot.
What should I do after a missed dabigatran dose?
Take it when remembered only if at least 6 hours remain before the next dose. Otherwise skip it; never double the next dose.
Does dabigatran need routine INR testing like warfarin?
No. INR does not reliably guide its effect. Kidney function, blood counts and clinical signs of bleeding remain important.
Can I stop it because I bruise easily?
Stopping anticoagulation abruptly can leave the underlying clot risk untreated. Unusual bruising needs assessment; major or ongoing bleeding needs emergency care.
Is there a reversal medicine for serious dabigatran bleeding?
Idarucizumab can rapidly reverse dabigatran in certain emergencies. It is given in hospital rather than used as a home remedy.
Why should dabigatran capsules stay in their original packaging?
Dabigatran capsules are sensitive to moisture. Keep them in the original blister or tightly closed original bottle rather than transferring them to a pill organiser, so their protective packaging remains effective.
