Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Acitrom tablet is not recommended during pregnancy, as it can cross to the baby and cause harm. If you are pregnant, think you may be, or are planning a baby, tell your doctor straight away so a safer option can be arranged.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding before taking this medicine. Your doctor will decide whether it is suitable, and your baby may need extra checks.

Driving

Driving

Acitrom tablet does not usually affect your ability to drive. Take normal care, and avoid activities where a knock or cut could cause bleeding.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Avoid or strictly limit alcohol while taking this medicine. Alcohol can change how the body handles it and raise the risk of serious bleeding. Ask your doctor for advice on your intake.

Directions for Use

Take this medicine as a whole with sufficient water. Acitrom tablet can be taken with or without food, at the same time each day. Regular blood tests are needed so your doctor can set the right amount for you. Do not start or stop it on your own without your doctor's advice.

Storage and disposal

Store Acitrom tablet in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, ideally below 30 degrees celsius. Keep it in the original pack and out of the reach of children. Do not use it after the expiry date, and return any unused tablets to a pharmacy for safe disposal.

Quick Tips

  • Get your blood tested regularly so your dose stays safe and effective.
  • Be careful while shaving, cutting nails, or using sharp objects, as you may bleed more easily.
  • Tell every doctor, dentist, and surgeon that you take a blood-thinning medicine before any procedure.
  • Watch for blood in your urine, stool, or vomit and tell your doctor if you notice it.
  • Carry a card or wear a bracelet that says you take a blood thinner.

Dosage

Overdose

Taking too much of this medicine can lead to unexpected bleeding or bruising. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

The body uses vitamin k to make several of the proteins that help blood clot. Acitrom tablet lowers the activity of vitamin k, so the body makes fewer of these clotting proteins. Blood then takes longer to clot, which helps stop harmful clots from forming or growing bigger.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Many medicines can change the way Acitrom tablet works, making it either too strong or too weak. Tell your doctor and pharmacist about all the medicines, vitamins, and herbal products you take. In particular, mention pain-relief medicines such as aspirin and ibuprofen, certain antibiotics, and herbal products such as ginkgo, as these can raise the risk of bleeding. Do not start any new medicine without checking first.

Interactions with food items

Keep your intake of vitamin k steady rather than changing it suddenly. Green leafy vegetables such as spinach, kale, and broccoli are high in vitamin k, so eat about the same amount from week to week so the medicine works predictably.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Yes. Blood tests are frequent at first and are spaced out once your dose is stable. They let your doctor set the right amount so the medicine is neither too strong nor too weak.
No. The key is consistency. Green leafy vegetables are high in vitamin k, so eat about the same amount from week to week so the medicine works predictably.
It is best to avoid or strictly limit alcohol. It can change how your body handles the medicine and raise the risk of bleeding. Ask your doctor for advice.
Press firmly on the cut with a clean cloth for at least ten minutes. If bleeding does not stop after ten to fifteen minutes, or the cut is deep, get medical help straight away.
