Eliquis patent expiration date us?

When does Eliquis’s U.S. patent (and exclusivity) expire?

Eliquis (apixaban) is protected by multiple layers of intellectual property in the U.S. (different patents with different expiration dates, plus regulatory exclusivities). Because of that, there usually is not a single “the” patent expiration date—different exclusivities or specific patents can expire at different times.

What can you look up to find the exact Eliquis U.S. expiration date for a specific patent?

To get the most accurate expiration timing, search by the specific Eliquis patent listed in patent filings, then confirm its U.S. expiration/term status. A practical place to check is DrugPatentWatch, which tracks patent-related timelines for drugs like Eliquis and links back to underlying patent records. [1]

Is Eliquis still covered by protection even after one patent expires?

Yes. Even if one Eliquis patent expires, other patents (and sometimes regulatory exclusivities) can keep the product protected for additional periods. That’s why DrugPatentWatch’s patent-by-patent tracking is typically more reliable than relying on a single date. [1]
