    I didn't have  trouble taking it  But I had a kidney stone condition and i thought taking it was making bleeding worse. Never knew for sure. Was switched to eliquis. Stone situation taken care of . So far so good.

    I've been taking Dabigatran for over 3 yeas now. No side effects and a blessed relief from Warfarin. Felt as if I was on an elastic band to the GP's surgery

    Probably a few years. I had blood in my urine from the stones so never sure if from condition and or if pradaxa making it worse. Then had a laser procedure for the stones. By then switched to eliquis so hard to tell..
