Eliquis Burning Feeling In The Soles Of The Feet
UpdatedHas anyone had an extremely uncomfortable burning in their feet while taking 5mg Eliquis once a day? My dad keeps getting this “on fire” sensation on the soles of his feet and “sunburn feeling” in his legs. He’s only been on this dose of Eliquis for a week but it hasn’t gone away. Can caffeine also be making this worse?

Hello, Lisa! I'm very sorry about what you're dad is experiencing.
Yes, Eliquis has been known to cause these types of side effects in some people that take it.
Ref: MedScape Eliquis
Other side effects may include nausea, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and gout.
Most side effects tend to taper off in severity, and eventually go away entirely, once someone gets used to a medication, but that may take about 4 to 5 weeks.
However, it is always best to inform his doctor to be sure there is nothing else of concern going on. Is he on any other medications?
I double checked the information on taking Eliquis with caffeine consumption and didn't find any warnings about it.
However, is his doctor aware that he takes in caffeine? How much does he ingest daily?
