Puis-je prendre de l'Aspirine et de l'Apixaban ensemble ?

Pourquoi cela se produit

Both medicines work to prevent blood clots but in different ways. Apixaban is an anticoagulant (blood thinner) that interferes with clotting proteins, while aspirin is an antiplatelet medicine that stops blood cells from sticking together. Using both at the same time makes the blood much less likely to clot, which increases the risk of haemorrhage (uncontrolled bleeding).

Do not take aspirin with apixaban unless your doctor has specifically told you to do so for a particular medical reason (such as having a heart stent). If you need pain relief, paracetamol is generally a safer choice. If you are already taking both, do not stop without talking to your doctor, but seek immediate medical help if you notice signs of bleeding, such as black tarry stools, blood in your urine, or coughing up blood.

Surgery or dental procedures

You must inform your surgeon or dentist that you are taking these medicines well in advance of any procedure. They significantly increase your risk of bleeding and may need to be paused temporarily to prevent serious complications.

Use of NSAIDs (e.g. ibuprofen, naproxen)

Do not take anti-inflammatory painkillers like ibuprofen or naproxen while on these medicines unless specifically prescribed. Combining them significantly increases your risk of internal stomach bleeding.

Asthme

If you have asthma, aspirin can occasionally trigger a severe worsening of symptoms or an allergic-type reaction. Do not take aspirin if you have ever noticed your asthma getting worse after taking similar painkillers.

Alcool

Drinking alcohol while taking aspirin can increase the risk of irritation and bleeding in your stomach. It is best to limit your alcohol intake or avoid it altogether if you have a history of stomach issues.
