• Swallow the medicine whole with a glass of water.

#sku_name# is taken orally.

#sku_name# contains Dabigatran Etexilate (110 mg), which functions in your body as follows:

• Direct thrombin inhibition: Dabigatran Etexilate acts by directly inhibiting thrombin, an enzyme in your body that plays a crucial role in blood clot formation.
• Decreases fibrin formation: By inhibiting thrombin, Dabigatran Etexilate effectively reduces the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin, a protein that aids clotting.

Reduces platelet aggregation: This medicine also decreases the ability of platelets, small blood components, to stick together and form clots. This action further contributes to its anticoagulant effect, helping manage conditions related to blood clot formation.

• Keep #sku_name# in its original package to protect it from moisture.
• Store at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.
• Avoid exposing the medicine to direct light or air.

• If you're taking #sku_name# for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE), try to incorporate regular, moderate exercise into your routine, as it can help improve blood flow. Consult your doctor for appropriate exercises.
• For patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, consider a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids (like fish or flaxseeds) which are known to support heart health. However, always consult your doctor before making any drastic diet changes.
