Don't Suggest Xarelto for Most Coronary or Peripheral Artery Disease Patients

You'll hear debate about adding Xarelto (rivaroxaban) to aspirin for stable coronary artery disease (CAD) or peripheral artery disease (PAD).

In fact, there's a new Xarelto 2.5 mg tablet...approved by Health Canada to be given twice daily WITH low-dose aspirin to reduce CV events in patients with chronic CAD, with or without PAD.

You may hear reps call this the "vascular" dose of Xarelto...versus the 10, 15, and 20 mg doses for venous thromboembolism or atrial fib.
