Dabigatran, a newly approved medication that may be better for some with atrial fibrillation to lower risk of stroke and clotting, has been found to have fewer drug problems and eliminates lab monitoring need. Following instructions for taking dabigatran is important because it is a twice daily medication requiring monthly refills. Rivaroxaban is a once daily, newly approved Factor Xa inhibitor oral medication, prescribed to reduce risk of stroke and systemic embolism among patients with atrial fibrillation. Apixaban is a twice daily, FDA approved Factor Xa inhibitor oral anticoagulant, prescribed to reduce the risk of stroke and blood clots among patients with atrial fibrillation. In a double-blind RCT, apixaban was found to be superior to warfarin in reducing stroke, systemic embolism, and death. Patients on dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and apixaban will not be followed in anti-coagulation clinics, therefore will not benefit from the support provided by these clinics.
