Background: Rivaroxaban (Xarelto) is a reversible direct factor Xa inhibitor used for the treatment and prevention of coagulation in numerous syndromes. There is very limited information available on the transfer of rivaroxaban into human breast milk. Case Report: This study determined the drug concentration-time profile of rivaroxaban in milk samples collected from two lactating mothers consuming 15 mg twice daily. After 21 days, each mother transitioned to 20 mg once daily. Levels in milk were measured using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry and analysis was done for both dosages. The maximum concentration of rivaroxaban observed for the 15 mg dose was 0.3 +/- 0.02 mu g/mL and that for the 20 mg dose was 0.26 +/- 0.01 mu g/mL. The relative infant dose (RID) was calculated to be 5% and 4%, respectively. Discussion: This relatively low infant dose is probably explained by the high plasma protein binding of rivaroxaban and its subsequent poor penetration into human milk. The results indicate that rivaroxaban receded to minimum concentration over a period of 12 hours. Conclusions: In these two cases, we found the levels of rivaroxaban in milk to be quite low, and the RID to be 5% of the maternal dose. Although the levels detected were low, rivaroxaban does transfer into breast milk. Caution should be exercised until further studies are conducted and report the safety profile of rivaroxaban in breastfeeding infants.
