Composition of Apivas 5 Tablet
Apivas 5 Tablet contains Apixaban. It belongs to the Blood thinner class of medicines.
Uses of Apivas 5 Tablet
- Heart attack
- Prevention of stroke
- Blood clots
Benefits of Apivas 5 Tablet
- In Prevention of heart attack
- Apivas stops blood cells clumping into a clot inside a narrowed heart artery, which is how most heart attacks begin. Taken every day, it lowers that risk considerably.
- In Prevention of stroke
- Apivas lowers the chance of a clot forming and travelling to the brain, which is the commonest cause of stroke in people with heart disease or an irregular rhythm.
- In Blood clots
- Apivas prevents an existing clot in a leg or lung from growing and stops new ones forming while the body clears the old one, reducing the risk of a dangerous clot reaching the lungs.
How Apivas 5 Tablet works
Apixaban makes your blood less likely to form a clot, which protects the narrowed arteries of the heart and brain.
How to take Apivas 5 Tablet
Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush or break it unless your doctor has told you to. Take it with food, at the same time each day. Taking it at about the same time each day helps you remember. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine can cause serious and difficult-to-control bleeding. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Side effects of Apivas 5 Tablet
Most side effects of Apivas are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
- Bruising easily
- Bleeding for longer from cuts
- Nosebleeds
- Indigestion
- Stomach pain
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions
Seek urgent care for black or tarry stools, blood in the vomit or urine, a severe headache, or bleeding that will not stop. Tell every doctor and dentist treating you that you are on a blood thinner, well before any procedure. Never stop this medicine on your own before surgery or dental work — stopping it carries its own risk, and the decision is your doctor's. Avoid contact sports and take care with razors and sharp tools.
Do not take Apivas if
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with active bleeding, a bleeding disorder, or a recent bleed into the brain.
Interactions with other medicines
Anti-inflammatory painkillers, including over-the-counter ones, sharply raise the bleeding risk. Combining two blood thinners multiplies the risk — never add one yourself. Tell your doctor about all herbal products; several affect clotting.
How to store Apivas 5 Tablet
Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
Quick tips for Apivas 5 Tablet
- Carry a card or note saying which blood thinner you take.
- Take it at the same time every day; a missed dose leaves you less protected.
- Use paracetamol rather than an anti-inflammatory for ordinary aches, unless your doctor says otherwise.
Related lab tests
People taking Apivas are often asked to check these from time to time. Your doctor decides which and how often.
