SIXABEN 5/2.5: Reduces Stroke Risk - Better Than Warfarin
Stroke is a major public health problem worldwide. It is the second leading cause of death and a major cause of disability. Each year, 15 million people worldwide suffer a stroke. Of these, 5 million die and another 5 million are left permanently disabled.
Stroke is caused by a sudden interruption of blood flow to the brain. This can happen because of a blood clot (ischemic stroke) or a bleed (hemorrhagic stroke). Stroke can affect anyone, but it is more common in older adults, people with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and heart disease.
There are a number of things that can be done to reduce the risk of stroke, including:
Controlling blood pressure
Controlling cholesterol
Managing diabetes
Exercising regularly
Eating a healthy diet
Not smoking
At INTRA LIFE, we understand the devastating impact strokes have on individuals and their families. That's why we are committed to providing innovative healthcare solutions to reduce the risk of strokes and improve the quality of life for millions of people worldwide.
Introducing SIXABEN 5/2.5 Apixaban 5mg/2.5 mg Tablets.
SIXABEN 5/2.5 is a breakthrough medication that offers advanced stroke prevention and systemic embolism treatment. This orally available Factor Xa inhibitor effectively inhibits free and clot-bound FXa and prothrombinase activity, reducing thrombin generation and preventing thrombus development. By targeting FXa, SIXABEN 5/2.5 blocks the propagation phase of the coagulation cascade, providing a highly selective and efficient solution.
SIXABEN 5/2.5 is a new oral medication that can help reduce the risk of stroke. It is a highly selective direct factor Xa inhibitor, blocking the propagation phase of the coagulation cascade. This means that it works by preventing the formation of blood clots, which can lead to stroke.
SIXABEN 5/2.5 has been shown to be more effective than warfarin for stroke prevention. In a clinical trial, SIXABEN 5/2.5 was shown to reduce the risk of stroke by 31% compared to warfarin. It also had a lower risk of major bleeding than warfarin.
Why choose SIXABEN 5/2.5 for stroke prevention and systemic embolism?
More effective than warfarin: SIXABEN 5/2.5 is an appropriate alternative to Vitamin K Antagonists like warfarin for preventing strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation. Its efficacy in reducing stroke risk has been demonstrated in clinical studies.
Lower risk of major bleeding: Compared to warfarin, dabigatran, and rivaroxaban, SIXABEN 5/2.5 significantly reduces the risk of major bleeding events. Your patients can have peace of mind knowing that they are receiving a safe and effective treatment option.
Decreased risk of intracranial hemorrhage: When compared to warfarin and rivaroxaban, SIXABEN 5/2.5 shows a much lower risk of intracranial hemorrhage. This important benefit minimizes the potential for life-threatening bleeding complications.
SIXABEN 5/2.5 is approved for six indications:
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
Pulmonary embolism (PE)
Prophylaxis of DVT in patients undergoing knee and hip replacement surgery
Atrial fibrillation
Stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation
Reduced-dose apixaban (2.5 mg twice daily) for patients with atrial fibrillation who are at high risk of bleeding
SIXABEN 5/2.5 is taken orally once or twice daily. It can be taken with or without food.
SIXABEN 5/2.5 is a new, effective, and safe medication for stroke prevention. It is more effective than warfarin and has a lower risk of major bleeding. If you are at risk of stroke, talk to your doctor about SIXABEN 5/2.5.
Manufacturing & Properties

The manufacturing process for SIXABEN 5/2.5 involves a number of steps, including:
The synthesis of apixaban
The formulation of the tablets
The packaging of the tablets
The synthesis of apixaban is a complex process that involves a number of chemical reactions. The formulation of the tablets involves the mixing of apixaban with other ingredients, such as fillers, binders, and lubricants. The packaging of the tablets involves placing them in blister packs or bottles.
SIXABEN 5/2.5 is a safe and effective medication for preventing strokes and systemic embolisms in people with atrial fibrillation. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully when taking SIXABEN 5/2.5, and to report any side effects that you may experience.
