Edoxaban and insomnia

[adx46]

Having been on the anti-coagulant Dabigatran for the last 8 years without any issues, my GP suggested I change to Edoxaban (I think its cheaper!). However, since changing 5 days ago, I've been sleeping badly and lightly. Has anyone suffered insomnia from Edoxaban or is it just a coincidence? Thanks

Yes, I think you are right 'cheaper' (my cardio told me this) was probably the only rationale. Disappointing they swap you without leaving the option to go back on the table; I think you are within your rights to insist if your issue continues.

Thanks for the replies. I don't have an issue with the suggestion to change - I did check with my cardiologist first before agreeing to it and he was fine with me swapping to Edoxaban. I'd just like to know if anyone else gets in insomnia to help me decide whether I stick with them or ask to go back to Dabigatran.

insist on going back onto the original,this was not swopped for medical reasons. I will.not accept it if I am ' suggested' to change xx
