Taking Rivaroxaban

[Sydenham]

Hi,feeling very nervous and confused,been given Rivaroxaban 20mg to take once a day,not the best at taking tablets, don’t want to mess up with this.Having to take it at same time with a meal doesn’t fit in with me,I don’t eat at regular times,does anyone take it with a snack,an apple or biscuit.I need to start taking the tablets instead of just looking at them.🌻Thanks

I take Dagabatran (and 10 others) I take mine twice a day at beakfast and then before bed with a biscuit or, wait for it, couple of prunes.

Thank you…so I don’t need to have a meal,a small snack then take tablet.Prunes sound good 🌻

Well it works for me They shouldn't be taken on a empty stomach though so make sure you eat something.
