other blood vessels in your
body if you have a form of
irregular heart rhythm called
non-valvular atrial
fibrillation
-
Treatment of blood clots in
the veins of your legs (deep
vein thrombosis, DVT) and
clots in your lung
(pulmonary embolism, PE)
and to prevent blood clots
from re-occurring in your
legs and/or lungs.

daily along with aspirin 100 mg
once daily, has been prescribed
