I have been taking mega red ( combination of fish oil and krill oil) for years to help the pain and stiffness due to osteoarthritis in my hip. a month ago i was put on eliquis after tavr procedure to replace my aortic valve. how dangerous is it for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mega Red can increase bleeding risk when taking eliquis. The increased bleeding risk outweighs the questionable benefit of mega red for your hip condition so I think you should stop the supplement. If you have doubt, please consult your cardiologist. Good luck.
