don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you hadad spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliqs treats dvt & pe blood clots. plus h h less major bleeding. both made switching to eliquis right for me.
