Prescription Pradaxa contains dabigatran, an anticoagulant (blood thinner) that blocks blood clot formation by inhibiting thrombin, the central clotting agent in the blood. By attaching to thrombin, Pradaxa prevents thrombin from producing the clot in the body.

Adults are prescribed Pradaxa for the prevention of blood clot formation in the brain, veins or other blood vessels and to treat clots in the legs and lungs. Pradaxa is prescribed (1) after knee and hip surgery, (2) in people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (and one or more other risk factor), (3) in people with existing blood clots in legs and lungs (DVT) and prevention of these clots.

Pradaxa was the first FDA approved warfarin alternative for reduction of stroke in atrial fibrillation not caused by problem with heart valve. Pradaxa reduces stroke risk better than warfarin in those with atrial fibrillation not caused by valve problems in the heart.

Pradaxa should be taken as prescribed by the doctor as there are many different treatment plans depending on the patients condition and the treatment goals. Do not stop Pradaxa unless advised to do so by your physician. One such time to stop treatment temporarily is prior to any scheduled surgery, so advise your healthcare team of all the medicines you take prior to any surgery.

Pradaxa treatment does not require regular blood tests. Pradaxa does not require any special dietary restriction.

Pradaxa can be taken with or without food, swallowed whole with water and is not to be crushed, chewed or emptied from the capsule.
