Has anyone experienced severe side effects from Dabigatran 110mg Capsules? Share your story or advice.
I've been prescribed Dabigatran 110mg Capsules to prevent blood clots due to my irregular heartbeat. I'm a bit worried about the potential side effects, especially the serious ones. Has anyone else taken this medication and experienced any severe issues? I'd love to hear your experiences or any tips on managing side effects. I'm taking it exactly as prescribed, but I'm just anxious about the possibilities of the serious symptoms. The list is quite scary. I'm especially worried about bleeding since I've had a nosebleed before. I know I should contact my doctor if I experience any of those symptoms, but it's still scary. Likewise, I'm also worried about the allergic reactions. I've been allergic to prescription drugs before, so I'm trying to keep my eyes peeled for any weird symptoms. Hopefully, everyone else has had a smooth experience!
Anyone else feel like they're constantly on edge waiting for a side effect to hit? It's a bit stressful but I'm hoping it gets better as time goes on. I'm just trying to stay positive. I know it'll get better. Let me know if any of you feel the same way.
I had a bad reaction to this stuff. I started bleeding from my gums for no reason. It was really scary. I had to go to the ER. DON'T stop taking it without your doctor's okay though. I've been off it for a while and I've been so worried about clots ever since. This med is definitely no joke.
I had to stop taking it because of severe stomach pain. It was non-stop and really debilitating. I switched to another medication and haven't looked back. I feel so much better. It's a shame because I couldn't handle that either. I'm just stuck in this vicious cycle.
I've been on Dabigatran for a few months now and haven't had any serious side effects. Just some stomach discomfort occasionally, but it's manageable.
How many of you have tried this pill after a significant DVT? I had one the size of a tennis ball in my leg. It was so scary and painful. I heard this drug works well for that too.
Make sure to take it with food to avoid stomach issues. Also, keep an eye out for any unusual bruising. I had a few small bruises that got bigger and bigger and that was my wake up call. It was a little scary, and I had to call my doctor right away. They told me to just keep an eye on it and it went away after a while.
I've been on this for years, and the only side effect was one bad night of heartburn. Otherwise, it's been smooth sailing. I mean, yeah the list of side effects is pretty scary, but I haven't had any issues. I guess I got lucky.
Did anyone else have issues with severe headache? I've had a few and I'm not sure if it's related to the medication. I see it on the list. I went to the doctor and they told me it wasn't related but I'm still not convinced. I'm just gonna keep an eye on it.
