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.
My mom started Eliquis two months ago. Her arms and legs are extremely itchy ..she is crazy from the itching which is waking her up in the middle of the night. Could the itching be from the Eliquis. It is getting worse. She is 87 years old and was on Warfarin before and was ok.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it is the hypersensitivity reaction and medicine could be the cause, such itching can be managed with Tab Hydroxyzine 10 mg three times in day hope this information helps.
