@terrigfield You mention a situation that I have yet to see mentioned in these groups. The process of reversal of Eliqus in an emergency situation. From what I've seen Eliqus is still working 24 hrs after the last dose. What little I have been able to read about the reversal agents available it doesn't sound that readily available and also not that fast acting like the one available for Coumadin. I've gotten to keeping a Quick Clotting kit in my car in hope that I would be able to use it if necessary.

So as good as it is in preventing clots there is another side to it like anything else in life.

@sandw40 What is in your Quick Clotting kit? Is this something you purchased as a 'kit' or did you put it together yourself with medical advice? Thank you.
