Hi ! I was diagnosed with Afib one year ago in January . I’ve had 7 episodes in the course of the year since I’ve been on Eliquis and metoprolol.

Hello, I am a 58-year-old female who was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation last week via my cardiologist and a heart monitor that I've been wearing for the past 30 days.

Hi I've been on Eliquis for some years, but today the Superdrug pharmacy where I get my prescriptions just gave me the Sandoz version of Apixaban instead of my usual Eliquis. She said that they can no longer get a specific make - they just use whatever brand they're sent. Has anyone had any issues
