1. What Dabigatran etexilate Sandoz is and what it is used for

Dabigatran etexilate Sandoz contains the active substance dabigatran etexilate and belongs to a group of medicines called anticoagulants. It works by blocking a substance in the body involved in the formation of blood clots.

Dabigatran etexilate is used in adults to:

  • prevent the formation of blood clots in the veins after knee or hip replacement surgery,
  • prevent the formation of blood clots in the brain (stroke) and in other blood vessels of the body if you have a type of irregular heartbeat called non-valvular atrial fibrillation and have at least one additional risk factor,
  • treat blood clots in the veins of your legs and lungs and to prevent them from happening again in the veins of your legs and lungs.

Dabigatran etexilate is used in children to:

  • treat blood clots and prevent them from happening again.

  • if you have any disease in an organ of the body that increases the risk of severe bleeding (e.g. stomach ulcer, injury or bleeding in the brain, recent brain or eye surgery),
  • if you are prone to bleeding. This tendency may be inherited, of unknown cause, or caused by other medicines,
  • if you are taking medicines to prevent blood clots (e.g. warfarin, rivaroxaban, apixaban, or heparin), except when switching from one anticoagulant treatment to another, while having a venous or arterial catheter and being given heparin through this catheter to keep it open, or while your normal heartbeat is being restored through a procedure called catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation,
  • if your liver function is severely reduced or you have a life-threatening liver disease,
  • if you are taking oral ketoconazole or itraconazole, medicines used to treat fungal infections,
  • if you are taking oral cyclosporin, a medicine used to prevent organ rejection after a transplant,
  • if you are taking dronedarone, a medicine used to treat irregular heartbeat,
  • if you are taking a combination product of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir, an antiviral medicine used to treat hepatitis C,
  • if you have been implanted with an artificial heart valve that requires permanent anticoagulant treatment.

If you are using medicines containing verapamil and your renal function is decreasedby more than half, you should be indicated a reduced dose of dabigatran etexilate of 75 mgbecause your risk of bleeding may increase.

In both types of surgery, treatment should not be initiated if there is bleeding at the surgical site. If treatment cannot be initiated until the day after the operation, dosing should be initiated with 2 capsules once a day.

After akneereplacement

You should start treatment with dabigatran etexilate 1-4 hours after the operation, taking a single capsule. Then, 2 capsules should be taken once a day for a total of 10 days.

You should start treatment with dabigatran etexilate 1-4 hours after the operation, taking a single capsule. Then, 2 capsules should be taken once a day for a total of 28-35 days.

Prevention of cerebral or systemic vascular obstruction by blood clot formation developed after abnormal heart rhythm and treatment of blood clots in the veins of your legs and lungs, including prevention of blood clots in the veins of your legs and lungs from reappearing

The recommended dose is 300 mg administered in the form of one 150 mg capsule twice a day.

If you are 80 years of age or older, the recommended dose is 220 mg administered in the form of one 110 mg capsule twice a day.

4. Possible Adverse Effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause adverse effects, although not all people suffer from them.

Dabigatran etexilate acts on blood coagulation; therefore, most adverse effects are related to signs such as bruising or bleeding. Major or severe bleeding episodes can occur, which are the most serious adverse effects and can cause disability, be potentially life-threatening, or even cause death, regardless of their location. In some cases, these bleedings may not be apparent.

If you experience any bleeding episode that does not stop by itself or if you experience signs of excessive bleeding (exceptional weakness, fatigue, paleness, dizziness, headache, or unexplained swelling), consult your doctor immediately. Your doctor may decide to keep you under close observation or change your medication.

Inform your doctor immediately if you experience a severe allergic reaction that causes difficulty breathing or dizziness.
