make mine an arnold palmer. same here. with xarelto there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto . is . the pentagon says 10 u.s. sailors held in iran are back in american care today, briefly detainedded after a mechanical
