WHAT XABAREM IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Xabarem contains the active substance rivaroxaban.
Xabarem is used in adults to:
-
prevent blood clots in brain (stroke) and other blood vessels in your
body if you
have a form of irregular heart rhythm called non-valvular atrial
fibrillation.
-
treat blood clots in the veins of your legs (deep vein thrombosis) and
in the blood
vessels of your lungs (pulmonary embolism), and to prevent blood clots
from re-
occurring in the blood vessels of your legs and/or lungs.
Xabarem is used in children and adolescents below 18 years and with a
body weight of
30 kg or more to:
-
treat blood clots and prevent re-occurrence of blood clots in the
veins or in the
blood vessels of the lungs, following initial treatment of at least 5
days with
injectable medicines used to treat blood clots.
Xabarem belongs to a group of medicines called antithrombotic agents.
It works by
blocking a blood clotting factor (factor Xa) and thus reducing the
tendency of the blood
to form clots.
