A member asked:
Just took my first 5mg dose of eliquis 3 hours ago. developed mild headache. should this be cause for concern? at which point should it be checked?

Headache is not a: common side effect to Eliquis. Perhaps the stress and concern you have with a new medication is enough to give you a mild headache. If it persists for a few more days or worsens then contact your health care provider and explain your concerns.
