What does it do?

Rivaroxaban is a direct factor Xa inhibitor used to regulate the coagulation process in the blood. It is used to prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases by preventing thrombus formation.

Rivaroxaban disrupts the process of thrombus formation by blocking the activity of factor Xa, which plays a crucial role in blood coagulation. This prevents excessive coagulation of blood and reduces thrombus formation.
