1. What is Dabigatran etexilate Sandoz and what is it used for

Dabigatran etexilate Sandoz contains the active substance dabigatran etexilate and belongs to a group of medicines called anticoagulants. It works by blocking a substance in the body involved in blood clot formation.

Dabigatran etexilate is used in adults for:

  • preventing the formation of blood clots in the veins after knee or hip replacement surgery,
  • preventing the formation of blood clots in the brain (stroke) and in other blood vessels in the body if you have a type of irregular heartbeat called non-valvular atrial fibrillation and have at least one additional risk factor,
  • treating blood clots in the veins of your legs and lungs and to prevent recurrence of blood clots in the veins of your legs and lungs.

Dabigatran etexilate is used in children for:

  • treating blood clots and preventing the recurrence of blood clots.

3. How to take Dabigatran etexilate Sandoz

Dabigatran etexilate capsules can be used in adults and children aged 8 years or older who are able to swallow the capsules whole. Other appropriate pharmaceutical forms are available according to age for the treatment of children under 12 years of age once they are able to swallow soft foods.

Always follow your doctor's instructions on how to take this medicine exactly. If you are unsure, consult your doctor again.

Take Dabigatran etexilate Sandoz as recommended for the following situations:

Prevention of blood clots after knee or hip replacement surgery

The recommended dose is 220 mg once daily (administered as 2 capsules of 110 mg).

If your renal function is reduced by more than half or if you are 75 years of age or older, the recommended dose is 150 mg once daily (administered as 2 capsules of 75 mg).

If you are taking medicines containing amiodarone, quinidine, or verapamil, the recommended dose is 150 mg once daily (administered as 2 capsules of 75 mg).

If you are taking medicines containing verapamil and your renal function is reduced by more than half, you should be prescribed a reduced dose of dabigatran etexilate of 75 mg, as your risk of bleeding may increase.

In both types of surgery, treatment must not be initiated if there is bleeding at the surgical site. If treatment cannot be started until the day after surgery, dosing should begin with 2 capsules once daily.

After knee replacement surgery

Begin treatment with dabigatran etexilate 1–4 hours after surgery, taking one single capsule. Then take two capsules once daily for a total of 10 days.

After hip replacement surgery

Begin treatment with dabigatran etexilate 1–4 hours after surgery, taking one single capsule. Then take two capsules once daily for a total of 28–35 days.

Prevention of systemic or cerebral vascular occlusion due to blood clots caused by irregular heartbeat, and treatment of blood clots in the veins of your legs and lungs, including prevention of recurrence of venous blood clots in your legs and lungs

The recommended dose is 300 mg administered as one 150 mg capsule twice daily.

If you are 80 years of age or older, the recommended dose is 220 mg administered as one 110 mg capsule twice daily.

If you are taking medicines containing verapamil, you should be prescribed a reduced dose of dabigatran etexilate of 220 mg taken as one 110 mg capsule twice daily, as your risk of bleeding may increase.

If you have a potentially higher risk of bleeding, your doctor may decide to prescribe you a dose of 220 mg administered as one 110 mg capsule twice daily.

You may continue taking this medicine if it becomes necessary to restore your normal heart rhythm through a procedure called cardioversion. Take dabigatran etexilate exactly as directed by your doctor.

If you have had a medical device (vascular stent) implanted in a blood vessel to keep it open during a procedure known as percutaneous coronary intervention with stent placement, you may receive treatment with dabigatran etexilate once your doctor has determined that normal blood coagulation control has been achieved. Take dabigatran etexilate exactly as directed by your doctor.

Treatment of blood clots and prevention of recurrence in children

Dabigatran etexilate should be taken twice daily, one dose in the morning and one dose in the evening, approximately at the same time each day. The dosing interval should be as close as possible to 12 hours.

The recommended dose depends on body weight and age. Your doctor will determine the correct dose. Your doctor may adjust your dose during treatment. Continue taking all other medications unless your doctor instructs you to stop any of them.

4. Possible adverse effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause adverse effects, although not everyone will experience them.

Dabigatran etexilate acts on blood coagulation; therefore, most adverse effects are related to signs such as bruising or bleeding. Major or severe bleeding episodes may occur, which represent the most serious adverse effects and, regardless of their location, can lead to disability, be potentially life-threatening, or even result in death. In some cases, these bleedings may not be obvious.

If you experience any bleeding episode that does not stop on its own, or if you develop signs of excessive bleeding (unusual weakness, fatigue, paleness, dizziness, headache, or unexplained swelling), consult your doctor immediately. Your doctor may decide to keep you under close observation or change your medication.

Inform your doctor immediately if you experience a severe allergic reaction causing difficulty breathing or dizziness.
