I have Lupus Anticoagulant and have quit taking cumadin and taking Pradaxa. Now I have a new doctor who is not sure this is the correct medicine for Lupus Anticoagulant. I have an appt with a hemotologist tomorrow to check it out. Do you know if Pradaxa is a safe choice for me?

Hi,
Welcome and thanks for asking.
Pradaxa has similar function yo warfarin and can be safely used in recommended doses.
However, do not exceed recommended dosage as anticoagulant action cannot be reversed.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
