Why are you not on a generic blood thinner?
**********
The best blood thinner is Eliquis and there is no generic yet.

T”he best blood thinner is Eliquis and there is no generic yet.”

There actually IS a generic for Eliquis/apixiban. They just won’t let you have it. Pfizer pulled some strings that retracted the release date that should’ve been January 2023.

Humana already had me set up to receive the generic. Then just a few days before release data the generic release was cancelled. The new release date is sometime in 2026, unless Pfizer finds some other reason to have it pulled.

On February 3, I even met with someone in Rep. Burchett’s (my Rep. at the time) office about this and was to told they can’t get mixed up in private industry. (Didn’t they have hearings when DirecTV cancelled Newsmax or something?)
