Thank You, I Have Been On Xeralto 20MG One (1(

Thank you, I have been on Xeralto 20MG one (1( evening at dinner time,and have been advised by my physician ands well as by Dr. Spangler of the Veterans Administration that a change to Eleiquis, 2.5MG twice per day (one at breakfast and one at dinner time would be a good change.

I have been concerned about a change in small wound healing with Xeralto and understand that this change may all me to be more at ease about taking this drug (Eliquis 2.5MG-2xdaily) rather than Xeralto 20MG 1x daily.
Initially I asked my Pulmonologist to lower the Xeralto from 20MG to 15MG.

The VA Pharmacist suggested that a change to the Eliquist would be preferable to the new 15MG of Xeralto.

What do you think about this ?
