Andexanet alfa is used to stop life-threatening or uncontrollable bleeding in people who are taking rivaroxaban or apixaban. [8] Studies in healthy volunteers show that the molecule binds factor Xa inhibitors and counters their anti-Xa-activity. [11] The first published clinical trial was a prospective, open label, single group study. [12]
The study analyzed records of more than 125,000 adults who began taking the GLP-1 drugs liraglutide, semaglutide, or tirzepatide between January 2018 and December 2023.
Compared to the risk of bleeding with warfarin use, direct factor Xa inhibitors have a higher risk of GI bleeding, but lower risk of bleeding in the brain. [2] Other side effects may include stomach upset, dizziness, anemia or increased blood levels of liver enzymes. [2]
Rivaroxaban, sold under the brand name Xarelto among others, is an anticoagulant medication (blood thinner) used to treat and prevent blood clots.

In other words, Ozempic only works when you’re using it. When you stop taking it, the effects of the medication will wear off which may lead to any or all of the following:
Rivaroxaban. During the SAR development of rivaroxaban, researchers realized that adding a 5-chlorothiophene-2-carboxamide group to the oxazolidonine core could increase the potency by 200 fold, which had previously been too weak for medical use. In addition to this discovery, a clear preference for the (S)-configuration was confirmed.
“Like any medication, when you stop taking it, it stops working,” Dr. Robert Gabbay, chief scientific and medical officer of the American Diabetes Association, said in an interview with the Times.
