Did the Eliquis reduce your platelet count? What were your starting numbers and what are they now after 3 months on eliquis?

Eliquis is a blood thinner. I have been taking it for several years to prevent clots from AFib. Unfortunately, my platelets continued rising until I had to take Hydroxyurea. I am currently taking 500 mg HU three days a week.

I go back to the hematologist in August. My last visit was 5/7 and they were 767 at that time. I do not think the Eliquis is going to lower my platelets but I will let you know what they are. I think the appointment is August 12th
