How Long Does Xarelto Continue Working In Your System?
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I was on xarelto for 1 month. I was taking 20 mg for a blood clot that developed from my mediport. The med caused me to itch so bad that I was switched to lovenox inj's. After three day of being on the lovenox I am still itching. It has mainly been my hands and my feet. How long do these medications work in your system for?

What are symptoms of blood thinners?... Around 6 months ago i was shaving and bleeding and i changed the razors and cleaned the razors but i kept bleeding while shaving and i am brushing my teeth and my gums are bleeding so i switched toothbrushes from soft bristle to name brand but still bleeding when i brushed my teeth and my periods were heavy and long and bruising on my arms but i wasnt on any blood thinners just a birthcontrol that came with a strip packs silica packets that never came with my birth control... I stopped the birth control and my gums are no longer bleeding and i don't bleed when i shave but my periods are odd... When i did nic myself shaving the blood seemed thick and came out alot but now if i do nick myself it bleeds thin fir a few seconds... Could it have been possibly a bloodthinner instead of birth control?

Deborah, I checked the side effect profile on Medline Plus and did not see anything listed related to blood glucose levels. Are you taking any other medications, or do you have any other conditions if I may ask?

Jan, according to this site's half life calculator, the drug is reduced by half about every 7 hours, meaning it would take about 3 days for it to reach minute levels in your body.

I too have some severe itching. I deal with it by applying very hot water to either hands or feet. Try it, it works very well. Good Luck.

I am on both as well. Xarelto has a half-life of approximately 7 hours. As a general rule, multiply the t1/2 by 6 to get a rough idea about how much time it takes a "healthy" person to excrete the drug (not including active metabolites. There are other things that relate to your question as well such as how long you've been on the med.
A one time dose of Xarelto should be out of your body after APPROX two days. But that does NOT mean you can have procedures that involve bleeding done in just two days. (I am a retired Pharmacist; NOT a doctor. Check w/ your own doctor, NOT just my feedback.)
