No Dx, but sure I have RLS-Is Eloquis the culprit?

[Becks81]

I'm new here and hoping to gain some insight and learn from others' experiences.

I had an ACL replacement surgery at the end of October (2020) and a blood clot in Mid-November which prompted an Eloquis Rx (blood thinner). Since then, I have had RLS symptoms that are severely affecting my ability to sleep which is then affecting every other aspect of my life. Has anyone else started symptoms of RLS after starting Eloquis?

There have been several anecdotal reports of Eliquis worsening RLS so you don’t seem to be the only one.

The people who reported it on here switched back to warfarin & it resolved the RLS.

Yes-- Eliquis can cause rls in many people. Like statins etc.
