Eliquis when did it come out?

When did Eliquis (apixaban) first get approved and launch?

Eliquis (apixaban) was first approved in the United States by the FDA on December 28, 2012, and that approval date is commonly treated as its “came out” moment for the US market.

What was Eliquis originally approved for?

The initial FDA approval in 2012 covered reducing the risk of stroke in people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, including those with additional risk factors.

Did Eliquis launch in other countries around the same time?

Country-by-country approvals can differ, but FDA approval in late 2012 is the key reference point most people use when asking when Eliquis “came out.”

Want the exact approval history by country or indication?

If you tell me which country (US, EU/UK, Canada, etc.) and whether you mean the first approval anywhere or the first approval for a specific use (like VTE prevention or DVT/PE treatment), I can narrow it down.
