Apigy Tablet contains Apixaban 2.5 mg, an oral anticoagulant (blood thinner) used to prevent and treat blood clots. It is a direct Factor Xa inhibitor, which reduces the risk of stroke and systemic embolism, especially in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, and helps in the prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) after surgeries like hip or knee replacement. It offers a convenient, fixed-dose regimen without the need for routine blood monitoring.

• Prevents stroke and embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation

• Offers predictable anticoagulation with minimal dietary restrictions

• Fixed-dose oral therapy with no regular INR monitoring required
