XARELTO® treats and helps protect against DVT/PE wherever your patients need it—inpatient and outpatient*1-7
Treatment and reduction in the risk of recurrence
◇For VTE prophylaxis in acutely ill medical patients at risk for thromboembolic complications who are not at high risk of bleeding.
*The decision regarding initiation setting should be based on the prescriber’s clinical judgment.
†Administer 6 to 10 hours after surgery once hemostasis has been established.
‡Avoid use in patients with CrCl <15 mL/min.
§Discontinue XARELTO® in patients who develop acute renal failure while on treatment.
ǁCalculate CrCl based on actual weight.
¶Patients with CrCl <30 mL/min were not studied, but administration of XARELTO® is expected to result in serum concentrations of rivaroxaban similar to those in patients with moderate renal impairment (CrCl 30 mL/min to <50 mL/min).
CrCl = creatinine clearance; DVT = deep vein thrombosis; HCP = healthcare professional; LTC = long-term care; PE = pulmonary embolism; VTE = venous thromboembolism.
