HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- Many newly diagnosed blood clot patients who are placed on anticoagulants (blood thinners) are not prepared for a major side effect of the medication: an increased risk of bleeding.
In this PEP Talk, Dr. Jacob Cogan of the University of Minnesota discusses different types of bleeding, what to expect, and how to manage bleeding.

Thank you for this helpful and informative webinar!
Great video. I'm in the UK and have had lots of different generic brands of Eliquis as it is off patent over here. No problems that I know of.
This is such an informative and educational PEP talk ❤ Really loved the discussion on menstrual bleeding, which will be very helpful for lots of female survivors.
Thank you, NBCA 👏
I started on 15mg Xarelto and increased to 20 for 6 months and I don't know what after
What about food interaction
I sadly didn’t get any explanation of blessings when I was first put on them almost 4yrs ago
