Xarelto is most: effective when taken with a meal. It is recommended that for any dose over 15mg it be taken with supper to assure it is with a meal. Once you refill his medication he should take his usual dose daily with supper. Don't take two doses to make up! Try not to miss doses in the future. It only works if he is taking it regularly. Look in the bottle to know ahead of time and to avoid running out.
