Is Apixaban 5mg BD Safe After ORIF Of The Tibia?
Then last night I had a bath which may have been too hot , and when I got out with help from my husband I fainted ! Dropped my systolic bp. I was sick and thought I had a PE or something . I'm really scared
In addition my accident was 3 weeks ago .
Also how will they get me off this drug will it be weaned ?
THe benefits of taking this drug out weights any side effects!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.
After an ORIF procedure, being on a blood thinner is really not an option but a must. We have enough products to address any bleeding should it occur. However, that is very unlikely as this is a controlled intervention.
Hot baths cause excessive sweating and fluid loss. That will closely mimic heat exhaustion like working excessively in hot climate. Kindly refrain from that as it leads to fluid loss, drop in blood pressure, decrease blood flow to the brain with symptoms of dizziness, fainting, vertigo, etc. In such events, drink as much water as possible.
I hope this helps and guides. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
There is no reason why my brain will spontaneously just bleed is there while taking this drug . ? I'm other wise fit and healthy ? Thanks again
No!

Hi,
This is a controlled process. Bleeding in the brain would be a very rare and uncommon side effect. In all, the benefits outweigh any potential consequences.
I hope this helps. I wish you well.
