PIXACOP 5 — Apixaban 5 mg Tablets

Overview

PIXACOP 5 contains Apixaban 5 mg, a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) used to prevent and treat blood clots. It works by inhibiting Factor Xa, a key protein in the blood clotting process, helping reduce the risk of stroke, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and pulmonary embolism (PE).

PIXACOP 5 is ideal for patients who require effective anticoagulation therapy without the need for routine blood monitoring, offering convenient once- or twice-daily dosing.

• Apixaban 5 mg – Direct Factor Xa inhibitor that prevents clot formation in the blood.
