I recently read that Eliquis can interact with some BP meds like diltiazem and other calcium channel blockers. Makes Eliquis more potent. Since these are commonly prescribed for BP are beta blockers preferred or other BP meds? https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188107#msg-188107 Thu, 05 Mar 2026 20:58:01 +0000 Phorum 5.2.23 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188218#msg-188218 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188218#msg-188218
CCBs are drugs like diltiazem, but it can also mean drugs prescribed for hypertension such as amlodipine. Any drug name ending with "pine" is a CCB (I have no idea why diltiazem is the one drug that breaks that rule). CCBs are the drugs that Eliquis has a modest interaction with.

BBs are drugs like metoprolol and propranolol. Any drug name ending with "lol" is a BB. BBs don't have any interactions with Eliquis or any other anticoagulant, not even warfarin.]]> Carey AFIBBERS FORUM Fri, 18 Nov 2022 01:23:00 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188217#msg-188217 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188217#msg-188217 smackman AFIBBERS FORUM Thu, 17 Nov 2022 23:40:37 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188132#msg-188132 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188132#msg-188132 sldabrowski AFIBBERS FORUM Sun, 13 Nov 2022 13:33:48 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188131#msg-188131 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,188107,188131#msg-188131
