Can Xarelto cause abdominal bloating and fluid retention?

There needs to be a study on this. I took it for 3 weeks but immediately i did not feel well and i blew up like a balloon. today i've decided to go back on coumadin.

Finally an answer to my two years of complaining. I have gained at least 50 pounds since being on Xarelto and it just keeps going up. No amount of exercise or dieting seems to matter. My legs are
both swollen and I suffer from bloat, gas and swelling every day. Someone has to look into this. We are not all imagining this. My Doctor doesn't seem to believe this is being caused by the Xarelto.
I cannot go back on coumadin because of 4 blood clots. Am I doomed to go from a size 12 to a size 18 because I need medication? I just discovered this site and was absolutely happy to read others are suffering. Of course, I'm not glad you are suffering but I sure am glad to know I'm not nuts, nor am I alone in this battle. But still I ask what do we do??

Now I have an explanation of why I've gained so much weight in such a short time. Had lost on WW and am gaining it all back. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I knew it, I knew it! I have been on it for two months and hope I can come off really son. I hate it. have gained weight (I eat almost nothing). Swollen feet and ankles which Ive never had before. Tired all the time and weak on my legs. Doctors would not agree with me that its xarelto. Pharmacist told me that others have told him the same thing.
Im glad that my problems have now been validated by others having the same symptoms.. altho sorry they do.

I was on Heparin and Lovenox shots for passing blood clot to lung, tapered of to Warfarin. Then was on Warfarin for 4 yrs. Thought the weight gain was from being immobile. Then got diagnosed with ovarian cancer and had to go back on heparin shots until my insurance would cover xarelto, so I could take my chemotherapy. After I started xarelto I noticed the weight coming back fast. I have to be on a blood thinner for life because of blood disorder and passing blood clots to both lungs twice. What in this world can I take or do to get rid of at least some of this weight. I swell all over some days, the Dr. gave me some fluid pills but only worked slightly and only when I am taking them. I am so tired all the time pain all over my body, especially my feet and legs they hurt so bad. Anyone have any ideas???

I just started taking xarelto about a week now and within those first few days i have experienced stomach problems meaning it feels like i need to be near a toilet every hour. I dont mind it if it clears up the bloodclot . Ive hardly eaten anything lately as my appetite has greatly decreased. Only eating with my medicine. Speak to your doctor weigh your options. Check out all the pros and cons of all medicines available to you. And, hopefully the risk is worth the life saver.

I’ve been taking Xarelto for nearly two months now, and noticed weight gain within about a week to 10 days. Not too bad, but was aware if some tummy upsets and bloating. At two weeks I’d gained 2kg - highly unusual for me. I asked the Dr, who quickly said no, Xarelto didn't have that side effect.
So I thought if not exercised and eaten a few too many buscuuts. But I’ve always been on the light side. If anything I have lost weight too easily.
The last time my weight crept up like this - with no change in diet - was many years ago when I was on antidepressants.
Now I AM feeling depressed! Not literally; but really annoyed.

Oh my goodness. I have been on Xarelto for over a year now. I was on Warphrin before. I too have gained so much weight, I am working out harder than ever, sometimes 8 session a week twice a day, walking, eating healthy, drinking water, cut our carbs and its just getting worse. Suffered with eating disorders my whole life so this is so sad and depressing for me. Has anyone had any luck in with loosin the weight?
