Frequently asked questions
What is Xarelto 20 used for?
Xarelto 20 is rivaroxaban 20 mg, a once-daily oral blood thinner. It prevents stroke in atrial fibrillation and treats or prevents clots in the legs and lungs.
Why must Xarelto 20 be taken with food?
At the 15 mg and 20 mg strengths, rivaroxaban is absorbed much better with a meal. Taking it on an empty stomach can leave you under-protected. Take it with your biggest meal of the day.
Xarelto 10 vs Xarelto 20 – what is the difference?
20 mg once daily is the standard dose for atrial fibrillation and long-term clot treatment. 10 mg is used after joint replacement and for extended prevention after a clot, and can be taken without food. Your doctor decides.
Does rivaroxaban need INR tests?
No. Its effect is predictable, so routine INR monitoring is not required. Your doctor will still check kidney function and blood counts periodically.
