GRIP, Laura T. e GIUGLIANO, Robert P.. Importance of dose selection in novel oral anticoagulants for atrial fibrillation. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2012, vol.82, n.4, pp.308-311. ISSN 1665-1731. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.acmx.2012.10.001.
There are several excellent alternatives to warfarin on the horizon for atrial fibrillation. Results from the trials, as well as pharmacokinetic data from the edoxaban studies, suggest that dose selection, based on pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, is a critical component in the development of novel anticoagulants. Greater flexibility in dosing with edoxaban and the opportunity for dose adjustment throughout the ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 trial may be advantageous in the competitive field of novel oral anticoagulants.
