What is Xarelto 10 mg Tablet?
Xarelto 10 mg is a blood thinner. It contains the Rivaroxaban as its active ingredient. Rivaroxaban 10 mg is an anticoagulant. It stop clots from forming inside veins. It blocks Factor Xa, a key step in clot chain. Less clot = lower chance of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).
Who usually gets it?
Doctor prescribed Xarelto 10 mg Tablet for:
- After knee or hip replacement surgery to prevent DVT/PE.
- Short‑term clot prevention when you had a short hospital stay and high risk to form clot (doctor decide).
- Sometimes after a big leg clot or lung clot is treated, lower dose 10 mg is used for extended prevention.
- For atrial fibrillation or active DVT/PE treatment.
How does it works?
The blood make clots using many proteins. One of them is Factor Xa. Rivaroxaban prevents clotting. So fibrin net doesn’t build well. Clots either do not form or stay small. Good for clot risk. However, it also means that bleeding can happen more easily, even by bruising.
How to take
- Dose: Take 10 mg tablet once daily.
- Take with or without food.

Missed dose?
If you remember the same day, take it. Next day? skip old one. Do not double up.
How long to continue

Stopping suddenly can raise clot risk again.
