About Rivaroxaban 20mg Tablets
Buy Rivaroxaban 20 mg Tablets online. Each tablet contains 20 mg of rivaroxaban, an anticoagulant (blood thinner) used to prevent and treat harmful blood clots. It is the same active ingredient as the reference brand Xarelto. In the USA, UK and Australia it is a prescription medicine, so a valid prescription is needed for your order. See today's price above and add it to your cart.
The 20 mg tablet is the standard once-daily dose. It is most often used to lower the risk of stroke in adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and, after the first 21 days of higher-dose treatment, to treat and prevent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Approved uses and legal status differ between countries, so this page covers the USA, UK, Australia, the UAE and Russia.

How it works
Rivaroxaban is a direct factor Xa inhibitor, a type of anticoagulant (blood thinner). Factor Xa is a protein the body needs to make blood clots. By blocking it, rivaroxaban makes the blood less likely to form clots in the veins, in the heart or in narrowed arteries. It does not dissolve clots that have already formed, and it does not cure the underlying condition.
Uses
Atrial fibrillation: rivaroxaban 20 mg once a day lowers the risk of stroke and systemic blood clots in adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, a heart rhythm problem that makes clots in the heart more likely.
Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism: after the first 21 days of 15 mg twice a day, 20 mg once a day continues treatment of a clot in a leg vein or the lungs, and can be used to help prevent it coming back.
Your prescriber chooses the right strength, and a lower 15 mg dose is used if your kidney function is moderately reduced.
Dosage and how to take it
The UK product information describes one 20 mg tablet once a day, taken with food, usually with the evening meal, for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. For treating clots, 20 mg once a day follows the first 21 days of 15 mg twice a day, and treatment lasts for at least 3 months, longer if your prescriber advises.
Dosing rules vary by country. The US label also describes 20 mg once a day with the evening meal for atrial fibrillation in patients with normal kidney function, and the same 21-day then 20 mg schedule for clot treatment. The 20 mg tablet should be taken with food. Do not change the dose yourself. Always follow the leaflet in the pack and the advice of your prescriber or pharmacist.
Storage Instructions
Store the tablets in their original pack, following any storage instructions printed on it. Keep out of the reach of children and do not use after the expiry date.
Possible side effects
- Bleeding, including nosebleeds, bleeding gums and bruising easily
- Heavier or longer periods in women
- Blood in urine, stool or vomit
- Anaemia (feeling tired or pale)
- Nausea
- Dizziness
- Headache
- Itching or skin rash
- Raised liver enzymes on blood tests
Seek urgent medical help for heavy or uncontrolled bleeding, black or bloody stools, vomiting blood, coughing up blood, a severe headache, sudden weakness or confusion after a fall or blow to the head, or swelling of the face, lips or throat. Tell any doctor or dentist that you take an anticoagulant before any procedure.
Safety
- Bleeding risk: rivaroxaban makes bleeding more likely and can cause serious or fatal bleeding. Do not use if you have active bleeding or a condition with a high bleeding risk.
- Do not stop suddenly: stopping early raises the risk of a stroke or blood clot. The US label carries a boxed warning on this. Only stop on your prescriber's advice.
- Spinal or epidural procedures: blood clots around the spine can cause paralysis after a spinal puncture or epidural. Tell your doctor you take rivaroxaban.
- Other medicines: aspirin, NSAIDs, other anticoagulants and antiplatelet medicines raise bleeding risk. Strong CYP3A4 and P-gp inhibitors such as ketoconazole, itraconazole and ritonavir, and inducers such as rifampicin, carbamazepine, phenytoin and St John's wort, change its effect and may mean it should not be used.
- Kidney and liver disease: the dose may need to change in kidney disease, and rivaroxaban is not for liver disease with a bleeding tendency. Your prescriber will check your kidney function.
- Artificial heart valves and antiphospholipid syndrome: rivaroxaban is not recommended with mechanical heart valves or in triple-positive antiphospholipid syndrome.
- Surgery and dental work: your treatment may need to be paused before surgery. Do not pause it yourself.
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding: the UK product information says it must not be used in pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Use effective contraception while taking it.
- Allergy: do not use if you are allergic to rivaroxaban or any ingredient. The tablets contain lactose.
- Carry an alert card: keep the patient alert card from the pack with you and show it to any healthcare professional.
