No Antedote For Bleeding On Xarelto

On Xarelto for 6 days (taking for Afib). On 6th day was removing a credit card from my wallet and received a terrible bruise on the end of my middle finger (no pain at all when I removed credit card). I read on internet that there is no antedote for stopping any severe bleeding if you are involved in an accident or require immediate surgery. I read that other blood thinners do have an antedote, but Xarelto does not. Is this true? If so, what can be done (sounds very dangerous to be on this).

Hello, Carrol! How are you?

Yes, that is correct. If you are severely concerned, you should speak to your doctor about taking an alternative medication.

The FDA lists the easy bruising as a possible side effect of this medication, along with nausea, dizziness and headache.

Is there anything else I can help with?
