Hi, my 78 yr old mother takes xareltto for long term AF. She currently has severe dental pain. Its sunday and she has appt for root canal treatment tomorrow. She hasnt taken her xarelto since friday, as the last dental appointment resulted in axcess bleeding . What is a safe strong pain killer for her to take now until her appt. She has some endone tablets left over from a previous occasion some time ago, but is itsafefor her to have them? We are in Australia. Thanks Laurie.
Hello Laurie. Thanks for sharing your query. I have gone through your concern, and it seems that the tooth which is paining and advised for root canal is carious one and the treatment is started to remove the pulp so bleeding occurred in last appointment. Bleeding in excess can be because of underlying infection or the medicine Carlito also causes unusual bleeding from wound.  I would advise you to consult her physician before stopping with the Carlito medicine and taking painkiller. As painkillers like Undone can increase the bleeding. Take Care. Thank you.
