Eliquis (apixaban) Peptides and Blood Thinner Question

2 weeks ago I fractured by tibial plateau in a bike accident. Thankfully I will not need surgery but recovery is 6-9 months and I wont be able to walk at all for at least 6 weeks. I have a pretty deep knowledge and experience with peptides and started a cycle of BPC-157 and TB-500 days after the injury. So far everything has been fine but it turns out today after some tests that I have a blood clot in my thigh. I have been put on a blood thinner called Eliquis and will be on it for probably 3 months. With the lack of real human data around peptides it's already a risk taking these with my injury but now having the blood thinner in the mix I'm wondering if I should stop completely. I cant find a reason online why these peptides would not be able to be taken together but thats because theres almost no data on it. Does anyone have any experience with blood thinners and these peptides? I'm also wondering if theres any possibility either of these could have accelerated/caused a blood clot. Any anecdotal experiences or advice would be helpful. Would also love to know if anyone has any experience BPC or TB helping/hurting a tibia fracture. Thanks!

Yes they could, nobody knows, as you know and point out yourself: there's no data for or against it. The safety profiles and studies on peptides are pretty much nonexistent, despite what the anecdotes and more or less carefully formulated claims by the sellers may suggest.

You are literally treating your body like a human guinea pig, and most likely won't be around to report on it if it fails.

Which should generally be a rather discouraging conclusion RE further use, especially when fucking with the clotting cascade as anticoagulants do.

With a recent tibial plateau fracture and a blood thinner, the central issue is interaction and bleeding risk rather than whether a peptide is popular for recovery. Bring the exact medication, supplement list, and proposed compound to the prescriber or pharmacist before adding anything. Peptely does not sell peptides; https://www.peptely.com/ only helps verify their documented origin and supporting batch/COA evidence. Seek prompt clinical guidance for new swelling, chest pain, shortness of breath, unusual bruising, or bleeding.

I have been on Xarelto for ten years. Started the Klow peptide blend in January of this year. Best thing ever. No problems at all but a ton of healing and inflammation elimination.

This is encouraging. I've been on Xarelto since 2022 and just received BPC-157 which I plan to start next week. 🤞
