[QUOTE="Geminigirl, post: 2290042, member: 137222"] Hi I am T2 and on Glimeperimide and numerous other meds for various conditions. I have Anti-Thrombin Defficiency 3 and since diagnosis in 2003 (following investigations following my 23 yr old Sons' sudden death from a Pulmonary Embolism) I was put on 75mg of Aspirin per day. I unfortunately had a very large DVT in my left leg Autumn 2019 and was put straight on Apaxiban. To start with 5mg x2 twice a day for 10 days, then reduced to 5mg x1 twice a day for 6 months and since May this year a life long dose of 2.5 mg x 2 a day. I have been fine apart from bleeding hard if I cut myself and I bruise easily. The Consultant favoured Apaxiban over Warfain due to my age (61) and the fact my Kidneys are in a1 nick! Having not been on Warfarin I can't compare but my friend is on it and obvs has to have regular blood tests and has to avoid certain foods. Curiously she is the same age as me but her GP won't change her over. Hope you continue to do well on it. [/QUOTE]
