Apixaban has a predictable-fixed effect and there is no need for routine testing of its efficacy.

However, I forgot taking my morning dose of Apixaban. 

Oh, these crazy working hours and anxiety! I just realized it 5 hours later at the office.

What should I to do?

  • The drug’s levels are relatively maintained in the bloodstream, so there is no need to worry.
  • I will catch up tomorrow by taking 3 tablets evenly split through the day and then back to my old schedule.
  • No more apixaban for today.
  • I will double my evening dosage for today
