Dabifib 110 Capsule

Dabifib 110 Capsule is a prescription anticoagulant that contains dabigatran etexilate 110 mg in each capsule. It belongs to the direct thrombin inhibitor class, which helps reduce the blood’s ability to form clots. Doctors may use Dabifib 110 Capsule to lower the risk of stroke and blood clots in certain adults, including people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation and some patients after hip or knee replacement surgery.

How it works: Dabigatran etexilate is a prodrug that is converted in the body to dabigatran, which directly blocks thrombin, a key protein needed to make blood clots. In capsule form, Dabifib 110 Capsule is swallowed whole so the medicine can be absorbed and then work throughout the bloodstream to help prevent harmful clots.

The Dabifib 110 Capsule strength is 110 mg per capsule, which is a lower-strength option within this medicine’s dosing range and may be selected when a prescriber wants a less intensive anticoagulant dose than higher capsule strengths. It is still a prescription-strength blood thinner, so the exact dose and schedule should be chosen by a doctor based on the condition being treated, age, kidney function, bleeding risk, and other medicines.

• Reduce stroke risk in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
• Help prevent blood clots in the legs or lungs
• Prevent clots after hip replacement surgery
• Prevent clots after knee replacement surgery
• Treatment plans chosen by a doctor for clot prevention

• Swallow Dabifib 110 Capsule whole with a full glass of water.
• Do not open, crush, chew, or sprinkle the capsule contents; the capsule shell helps protect the medicine.
• Take it exactly on the schedule your doctor prescribes, because this capsule is a blood thinner and timing matters.
• If your stomach is sensitive, your doctor may tell you whether to take it with or without food based on your situation; follow the prescription label.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is close to the next dose; do not double up unless your prescriber specifically instructs you to.
• Store the capsules in the original strip or box until use so they stay protected from moisture.

Each Dabifib 110 Capsule provides 110 mg of dabigatran etexilate. The number of times it is taken per day depends on why it was prescribed and on kidney function, age, and bleeding risk; the doctor decides the exact schedule for this strength. Do not take more than prescribed, because anticoagulant doses are individualized and too much can raise bleeding risk.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Dabigatran Etexilate may include:

• Easy bruising
• Heartburn or indigestion
• Stomach pain
• Nausea
• Diarrhea
• Bleeding from the nose or gums
• Minor bleeding that may be more noticeable at this anticoagulant strength

• This is a blood thinner, so even small cuts may bleed longer than usual.
• Tell every healthcare professional, dentist, or surgeon that you take Dabifib 110 Capsule before any procedure.
• Avoid NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or naproxen unless your doctor says they are safe with your anticoagulant.
• Alcohol can increase bleeding risk and stomach irritation.
• Use extra caution if you have kidney problems, because dabigatran is cleared by the kidneys.
• Do not stop Dabifib 110 Capsule suddenly unless your prescriber tells you to, because stopping can raise clot risk.
• Seek medical advice right away after a fall or head injury, even if you feel fine.

• Aspirin and other antiplatelet drugs
• Warfarin and other blood thinners
• NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen, and ketorolac
