Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I take Eliquis 5mg twice daily. My cardio gave me some Savaysa 30mg and said it is the same thing. Obviously, that cannot be; but my question is, if I run out of Eliquis 5mg, can I substitute the Savaysa until my proper refill of Eliquis can be filled? It can take a month to get scripts from the VA. Any answer out there?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, apart from the little difference both the medicine have some pharmaceutical action on blood clot formation in my opinion you can it is better to continue either of drug no need to run with these two drugs hope this information helps.
