Apixaban (Eliquis) and Omega 3 supplements

[ktf2022]

Hey All!! Question...Are others who take Apixaban (Eliquis) also taking Omega 3 supplements (that include DHA)? I've read that it could be problematic...increase length of time for bleeding, etc. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!

My AFib pharmacist discourages O 3's and limited my intake.

I have taken fish oil capsule omega 3,6,9 for decades and am also on Edoxaban no problems, bruising , bleeding etc

I eat walnuts. You can eat oily fish like mackerel or salmon etc., if you're not a vegetarian like me. You can get all the omega 3 you need from food, there is no need to take supplements. I have no bleeding problems.

All the best.
