Introduction to Bivacard 250mg Injection

Bivacard 250mg Injection is commonly used in patients with irregular heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation) to prevent clot formation.

You may need to take this medicine for many years, even for life in some cases. Do not stop taking it or change the dose without guidance from your doctor. It could quickly put you at more risk of having a heart attack, stroke or thrombosis (formation of a blood clot within a blood vessel). You can reduce your risk of having a blood clot by making changes to your lifestyle, such as not smoking, eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and losing weight if you need to.

The most common side effect of Bivacard 250mg Injection is bleeding more easily than normal, for example, having nosebleeds or bruising. If you experience any symptoms, tell your doctor immediately.
