Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including http://www.biospace.com/News/bayer-healthcares-xarelto-rivaroxaban-becomes/244131

Rivaroxaban (trade name Xarelto) is an oral anticoagulant. It is the first available orally active direct factor Xa inhibitor. Upon oral administration, rivaroxaban selectively binds to both free factor Xa and factor Xa bound in the prothrombinase complex. This interferes with the conversion of prothrombin (factor II) to thrombin and eventually prevents the formation of cross-linked fibrin clots. Rivaroxaban does not affect existing thrombin levels. Activation of factor X to factor Xa (FXa) via the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways plays a central role in the cascade of blood coagulation. Xarelto is indicated to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, treatment and prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) which may lead to PE in patients undergoing knee or hip replacement surgery, pulmonary embolism (PE) and for the reduction in the risk of recurrence of deep vein thrombosis and of pulmonary embolism following initial 6 months treatment for DVT and/or PE.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Rivaroxaban is distributed heterogeneously to tissues and organs, exhibiting only moderate tissue affinity and does not substantially penetrate the blood-brain barrier.

Originator

Curator's Comment: Rivaroxaban was discovered in Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals' Wuppertal laboratories in Germany, and is being jointly developed by Bayer HealthCare and Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical. # Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals

Sample Use Guides

15 mg and 20 mg tablets with food; take 10 mg tablets with or without food. For patients with CrCl >50 mL/min 20 mg orally, once daily and for patients with CrCl 15 - 50 mL/min 15 mg orally, once daily with the evening meal.
Route of Administration: Oral
To evaluate the influence of prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) on the anticoagulant effects of rivaroxaban as measured by prothrombin time (PT) and thrombin generation tests plasma and whole blood samples from healthy volunteers were spiked with Rivaroxaban (up to 800 ug/L) and prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) was added to these samples in concentration ranges as used clinically to reverse the effects of vitamin K antagonists. Prothrombin complex concentrate does not neutralize the lengthening effect on PT and TGT lag time/T-Lag of rivaroxaban anticoagulated blood in vitro; however, total thrombin potential could be normalized.
