Does PRADAXA and anti coagulant medication increase TYPE @ diabetes?

Bumping for you @deepakpatel53

What kind of diabetes are you asking about?

Hi!
I have recently changed my blood thinning medication from WARFARIN to PRADAXA (Dabigatran).
Earlier my average readings were between 4.3 to 5.2.
After changing my medication the readings are 6.3.
Daily checking shows high readings of 6.6 to 8.9.
Does anyone have a similar situation?

Hi deepak, I have been on them all for A Fib and finished up on pradaxa. The other two novels gave me loose bowels. With Warfarin I couldn't get my INR above 1.6 on 13mgs! I'm a super rat!
Pradaxa does not affect my blood glucose but statins have a terrible effect. Mind you I got the doctor to put me on the 2x per day 110mg dose of pradaxa rather than 150mg! atb Derek
