turned around my thinking. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serious and in r rare casefatal bleeding. dodon't takeliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you had a s spinainction 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 te certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis treats dvt & pe blood clots. plus had less major bleeding. both made switching to eliquis right for me. ask your doctor if it's right for you.
