A member asked:

I have been taking xarelto for exactly a year now because of a bad leg break. doc wants me off of them now. will i clot again?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Provoked clot: Most likely your clot came from the immobility associated with you injury. Typically in this scenario, lifelong anticoagulation is more harmful than beneficial and a year is a more than adequate course of treatment.
