Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
can you advise if xarelto is a clot buster - I have been diagnosed as having a clot in my jugular by my clavical and was advised that xarelto was a clot buster, I had an ultra sound and a CT scan in October to confirm there was a clot, the Dr put me on the medication and advised it was a clot buster, I recently had another CT scan hoping the clot was dissolved only to be told there had been no change. I am hesitant on being on this drug for a lengthy period of time as it has been renewed for another three months.

Is Xarelto A Clot Buster Drug?
Hello, Xarelto doesnt dissolve the clot. It helps to prevent further clots from forming and also clot propagation. Hope I have answered your query. Take care Regards, Dr. Rana Ahsan Javed, General & Family Physician
