About RIVATOP-2.5 TABLETS

RIVATOP-2.5 TABLETS belongs to a class of drugs known as anticoagulants or blood thinner. RIVATOP-2.5 TABLETS is primarily used to prevent and treat deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in leg veins) and pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lung) by reducing blood clot formation.
