Overview Rivaflo 20 Tablet

Rivaflo 20 Tablets function as an anticoagulant, preventing and treating blood clots. This medication lowers the risk of stroke and heart attack by inhibiting clot formation in leg, lung, brain, and heart veins. Frequently prescribed for individuals with atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat), it also mitigates clot risk following knee or hip replacement. Administration is independent of food intake, but consistent daily timing is crucial for optimal efficacy. Long-term use, potentially lifelong, may be necessary. Discontinuing or altering dosage without physician consultation significantly increases the risk of stroke, heart attack, or thrombosis. Lifestyle modifications – including smoking cessation, a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and weight management (if needed) – further reduce clot risk. Increased bleeding susceptibility (e.g., nosebleeds, easy bruising) is a common side effect; any concerning symptoms require immediate medical attention. Contraindications include severe liver or kidney disease, active bleeding, and concurrent use of other anticoagulants. Breastfeeding is not advised during treatment. Unlike some anticoagulants, routine PT-INR monitoring is unnecessary.

FAQs on Rivaflo 20 Tablet

Rivaflo 20 Tablet may cause prolonged or heavy bleeding, shortness of breath (possibly indicating bleeding), fatigue, weakness, pallor, dizziness, headache, and unexplained swelling.

Rivaflo 20 Tablet is an anticoagulant, preventing blood clots in blood vessels and reducing the risk of recurrence. It's used to treat clots in leg veins and lung blood vessels.
Rivaflo 20 Tablet offers several benefits, but it can increase bleeding, even from minor injuries, by reducing blood clotting. Serious, potentially dangerous bleeding requiring immediate medical attention may occur. This risk is heightened when taken with other blood thinners. Report any bleeding, however slight, to your doctor.
Don't consume grapefruit or grapefruit juice while taking Rivaflo 20 Tablets, as grapefruit inhibits Rivaflo 20's metabolism, potentially increasing bleeding risk. Similarly, if you're on other blood thinners like warfarin, avoid foods high in vitamin K (e.g., spinach, Brussels sprouts, mustard greens, broccoli, asparagus, green tea) which promote blood clotting. However, these vitamin K-rich foods don't interact with Rivaflo 20 itself.
