Blood clot in lung: What precautions should I take?

Posted by worm @worm, Aug 13, 2023

I have a small blood clot lodged in my lung. I take 5mg Eliqui twice a day for blood thinner. Is it safe to continue taking Viagra?

Hi @worm. I did a quick check with a drug interaction for Eliquis/Viagra. No interactions were found between the drugs. However, this does not necessarily mean no interactions exist. Whether or not you can continue to take viagra while on Eliquis with a blood clot in your lungs would be a question for your doctor.

Were you told to limit activities because of the blood clot?
