Hi, I have just moved to another state and seen a Dr.  He sent me for blood work and my A1C test came back as 5.9. I was taking xarelto at the time of this test and had been for 6 months but have since quit taking it and went back on warfarin.  Would Xarelto causemy A1C to be high? I have always had very good sugar levels.
Dear friend, greetings from Chat Doctor . I appreciate your concern . But Carlo is an anticoagulant used to prevent formation of clots inside our blood vessels . It is an alternative to warfarin . Yes it can cause slight increase in sugar levels . But the incidence is very, very low . 0.1% . HbA1c is the indicator or glycemic status over a period of 2/3 months . I don't think it is the reason for glucose levels. Please continue the Chat Doctor.  Regularly . Meet him or contact us with your blood report . We will help you . Thank you and take care
