Blood Clots

Dangerous and potentially life-threatening blood clots have been reported while taking Xarelto.

Xarelto is a blood thinner drug that’s actually designed to prevent blood clots. Other issues like uncontrolled internal bleeding have also been reported, but many patients were never informed of the risk.

What’s more, many patients indicate that they were never informed of the fact that there is no antidote to Xarelto, making treatment of bleeding extremely difficult and in some cases, impossible.

As a blood thinner medication that’s often prescribed as an alternative to coumadin/warfarin, Xarelto was actually designed to thin the blood in a manner that prevents blood clotting. The drug is frequently prescribed to treat or prevent blood clotrelated conditions, such as stroke, pulmonary embolism and deep-vein thrombosis. So the blood clots that arise as a side effect took many by surprise.

The blood clots can obstruct essential areas of the circulatory system. Physicians cannot perform a surgical operation to tend to the problem because Xarelto thins the blood to the point of xarelto uncontrollable bleeding, which is another side effect of Xarelto that has been cited in lawsuits.

Taking Xarelto can result in uncontrolled internal bleeding that cannot be curbed leading to permanent hospitalization and even death in some cases. If this occurs near the brain, it can lead to a fatal or crippling hemorrhage. If this happened to you, our attorneys will ensure you receive the financial and medical compensation you deserve.
