Purpose

Pradaxa is an anticoagulant prescribed to patients with atrial fibrillation, a condition which can lead to stroke and blood clots when not treated. This medication works by blocking a clotting protein, known as thrombin, to help keep blood circulation working smoothly in your body.

Uses

Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a common type of heart arrhythmia, where the heart beats in an irregular way, causing a disruption of blood flow. An estimated 12.1 million Americans will be affected with this condition by 2030. Pradaxa helps manage blood clots.

• Reduces the risk of stroke in patients with AFib (not caused by a heart valve problem)
• Treats blood clots in leg veins (deep vein thrombosis) and the lungs (pulmonary embolism)
• Helps keep blood flowing properly in your body
