Quality meat, salt, and pepper is all we add to our simple burger recipe. Weâve tried adding extras â olive oil, cream, mustard and grated onion to name a few. While we liked some, none were as good as simply seasoned hamburger burger patties cooked in a little butter.
Now, a new study finds there are three different approaches to reverse the action of one new blood thinner, apixaban (Eliquis) -- a drug that's currently under review by the U.S. Federal Drug Administration. Researchers in Spain noted that it remains unclear which method for reversing this new drug might be best.
Eliquis is the brand name of the generic drug apixaban, which is used to prevent strokes. The drug also stops blood clots from forming in a vein in one area of the body (deep vein thrombosis, or DVT) then traveling to another (thromboembolism). Eliquis is also approved for treating pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lungs). The drug is an anticoagulant that works by inhibiting factor Xa, a protein that speeds blood clot formation. Eliquis was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2012. Bristol Myers Squibb manufactures it.
