21 Answers
Hi there I am on rivaroxaban 20mg for atrial fibrillation a blood thinner and I really need a tooth out I am going to dental hospital for it I have taken 2mg of lorezapam now I take another 4mg at bedtime and another 4mg 90 minutes before appointment last time I chickened out of getting it done even after taking all pills. So referred to dental hospital I spoke to my GP and she told me to carry on taking rivaroxaban as normal it will be fine so I've reluctantly taken tonight's dose will the dentist be able to control the bleeding? I read on the internet stupid I know that there is no antidote to rivoroxaban but it is very short life 24 hours do you think I will be OK at initial assessment they said they would pack it and may have to put a stitch in it. But I'm still freaked what if I bleed to death. I know it sounds crazy but I am sure I will feel better once all these pills kick in.
