The active ingredient in Rivaban 2.5 Tablet is rivaroxaban (2.5 mg). Here's how it works:

• Inhibits Factor Xa: Rivaroxaban functions by selectively and directly inhibiting factor Xa, an enzyme critical to the blood clotting process.

• Reduces Clot Formation: By inhibiting factor Xa, rivaroxaban reduces the formation of thrombin, a protein responsible for blood clotting, thereby decreasing clot formation.

This mechanism of action makes Rivaban 2.5 Tablet effective in managing conditions related to blood clotting and stroke prevention.
