Kinexa Tablet 10 mg
Kinexa Tablet 10 mg Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Kinexa Tablet 10 mg is a highly selective direct factor Xa inhibitor. Inhibition of factor Xa interrupts the intrinsic and extrinsic pathway of the blood coagulation cascade, inhibits thrombin formation. Kinexa Tablet 10 mg does not inhibit thrombin (activated factor II) and no effects on platelets have been demonstrated.
Kinexa Tablet 10 mg is an anticoagulant which binds directly to factor Xa. Thereafter, it effectively blocks the amplification of the coagulation cascade, preventing the formation of thrombus. Kinexa Tablet 10 mg is a unqiue anticoagulant for two reasons. First of all, it is does not involve antithrombin III (ATIII) to exert its anticoagulant effects. Secondly, it is an oral agent whereas the widely used unfractionated heparin and low molecular weight heparins are for parenteral use only. Although the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and HepTest (a test developed to assay low molecular weight heparins) are prolonged in a dose-dependant manner, neither test is recommended for the assessment of the pharmacodynamic effects of rivaroxaban. Anti-Xa activity and inhibition of anti-Xa activity monitoring is also not recommended despite being influenced by rivaroxaban.

How Kinexa Tablet 10 mg works
Kinexa Tablet 10 mg competitively inhibits free and clot bound factor Xa. Factor Xa is needed to activate prothrombin (factor II) to thrombin (factor IIa). Thrombin is a serine protease that is required to activate fibrinogen to fibrin, which is the loose meshwork that completes the clotting process. Since one molecule of factor Xa can generate more than 1000 molecules of thrombin, selective inhibitors of factor Xa are profoundly useful in terminating the amplification of thrombin generation. The action of rivaroxaban is irreversible.
Dosage
Kinexa Tablet 10 mg dosage
Kinexa Tablet 10 mg 2.5 mg:
The recommended dose is 2.5 mg twice daily. Patients should also take a daily dose of 75-100 mg Aspirin or a daily dose of 75-100 mg Aspirin in addition to either a daily dose of 75 mg clopidogrel or a standard daily dose of ticlopidine.
Kinexa Tablet 10 mg 10-20 mg:

Treatment of DVT & PE: 15 mg orally twice daily with food for the first 21 days for the initial treatment of acute DVT or PE. After the initial treatment period, 20 mg orally once daily with food for the remaining treatment
Prevention in the risk of recurrence of DVT and of PE: 20 mg once daily with food

Side Effects
The most common adverse reaction is bleeding. Increased risk of stroke after discontinuation in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.

Half Life
The terminal half life is 5-9 hours in adults and 11-13 hours in the elderly.
Clearance
Systemic clearance is approximately 10 L/h, so rivaroxaban is considered a drug with low clearance. Renal clearance is ~3-4 L/h.
Elimination Route
Approximately two-thirds of rivaroxaban is excreted into urine (via active tubular secretion in which approximately 36% as unchanged drug and 30% as inactive metabolism). The remaining third of the administered dose is excreted via feces in which 7% is in the form of unchanged drug and 21% as inactive metabolites.
