Eliquis 5mg (Apixaban) – 20 Tablets
Product Description
Eliquis 5mg contains Apixaban, an oral anticoagulant (blood thinner) used to prevent and treat the formation of harmful blood clots in the body. As a direct Factor Xa inhibitor, Apixaban works by blocking the activity of clotting factor Xa, thereby reducing the risk of stroke, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and other thromboembolic events.
Each pack contains 20 tablets, suitable for short-term treatment or ongoing prevention, depending on the medical indication.
