Xarelto And Vitamins? (Page 3)

Updated

Was prescribed Xarelto 15 mg 2x daily two weeks ago for blood clot in the leg. I would like to keep taking the viamins/ supplements that I always took before this - I.e., B complex, Vit. C 1000 mg, Calcium/Magnesium, Vit D 2000 IU, Co-enzyme Q 10 200 mg, Biosil and Lutein. My doc said "no", but didn't tell me why not. Can't find any info anywhere to determine abiut this. Xarelto manufacturer has no info on package insert. Pharmacist doesn't seem to know either. I have read on another website that apparently the maket did not test for interactions w. vitamins, so they don't know. Does anyone here have any futher info regarding this? I feel that I really need to be taking my vitamins!

You have been mislead, you should not be taking certain Vitamin B supplements especially Niacin and Inositol that are part of the B family. Google these two with Xarelto and it says not to take them if you are on Xarelto.

You can just in moderation it's because they have a high amount of vitamin k and can cause more clotting

If anyone can show me any actual medical evidence or study that says vitamin E or K should not be taken with Xarelto I'd like to see it.
Thanks.

Tara - Your Dr Sounds Like My Kind of Physician! I've been wanting to take Vitamin C along with the Xarelto, and everybody's too scared to tell me it's OK, even though it would probably dissolve the residual DVTs in my legs. You probably wouldn't want to share his contact info with me, would you?

Surprised your Dr said all vitamins are okay since my pulminologist said no Vit E or Fish Oil/Omega 3's including multi-vitamins which contain them. Also recently read about avoiding grapefruit (https:/­/­www.webmd.com/­drugs/­2/­drug-156265-1153/­xarelto-oral/­rivaroxaban-oral/­details/­list-interaction-details/­dmid-137/­dmtitle-avoid-grapefruit-unless-md-instructs-otherwise/­intrtype-food).
