When you start taking Xarelto, make sure to read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist. Take this medication by mouth as directed by your doctor. For preventing strokes and blood clots due to an irregular heartbeat, take a dose once a day with the evening meal. For other conditions, such as after surgery or during a hospital stay, also take a dose once a day. For adults treating blood clots, take a dose twice a day for the first 3 weeks, then once a day. For children, the dose is usually once a day. If you are taking this medication to lower the risk of blood clots from forming again, the dose is usually taken once a day. Carefully follow your doctor's directions and do not change the dosage without consulting your doctor.

The 10 milligrams tablet may be taken with or without food, while the 15 milligrams and 20 milligrams tablet should be taken with food. If you have any questions about how to take Xarelto, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

If you are unable to swallow whole tablets, you can crush the tablet and mix it with applesauce, but do not prepare a supply for future use. If you are giving this medication through a tube into the stomach, ask your health care professional for detailed instructions on how to properly mix and give it.

The dosage and length of treatment is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. For children, the dosage is also based on weight. Take Xarelto regularly at the same time(s) each day to get the most benefit from it.
