Is eliquis 5 mg twice daily still effective for me if i am an untra rapid metabolizer or could i require it taken 3 times ? is it possible it isnt reaching peak anti coagulant affect due to being metabolized so quickly ?

There are a lot of hypothetical questions and reasonings here. Best discuss it with the prescriber. Never change the dose of a prescribed medicine without consulting the prescriber. Good luck
