I am on rivaroxaban, 3rd day, and feel nauseated and faintitng. Any more experiences on rivarixaban? Regards, Eva

Is rivaroxaban the same sort of medication as Dabigatran, if so and you don`t settle with them, perhaps your GP would consider trying you with Dabigatran, I have been taking this for approx two months and have no side effects whatsoever, It`s great because I had such a rough time while taking Warfarin. I hope you find something soon that you can be comfortable with.
