Fatigue/ Bloated

I was put on xarelto 5 days ago for a clot in my leg. They can't figure why I got it. So are testing for all sorts of things. As a mother of three I am very busy and the xarelto seems to be making me even more tired and my stomach looks like I'm 8months prego again!!!!! Why is this happening? I heard this drug is way better than any other. What will I and all the others do if its doing all these awful side affects. P.s I'm scared to see what my period will be like.! Anyone else's get worse?

Hello, Dee! How are you doing? I'm very sorry about the problems that you've been having.

Those can be side effects of this medication, many people have been complaining about similar experiences and a lot had to switch to different medications.

And yes, there have been reports of women experiencing much heavier periods, as well as irregular bleeding and longer periods.

Other side effects may include easier bruising, nausea and headache.

Some side effects may improve after you've been on it for 3 to 4 weeks and your body gets used to it, but if they do not, or if they worsen, you should contact your doctor immediately.

You should also make sure to double check with them regarding the bloating, because while it is rare, there is a slight chance that it may be due to some type of internal bleeding.

Is there anything else I can help with?
