Eliquis The drug Eliquis (apixaban) is used to help prevent blood clots in certain patients.

In clinical trials, among 5924 patients treated with Eliquis, 153 developed the adverse reaction of nausea (based on data from Bristol-Myers Squibb Co.). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that 3% of Eliquis users develop nausea. Does nausea appear to be a problematic adverse reaction? Testing Claims About Proportions. In Exercises 9–28, test the given claim. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, or critical value(s), then state the conclusion about the null hypothesis, as well as the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the P-value method unless your instructor specifies otherwise. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution, as described in Part 1 of this section.
