Breaking news in AF treatment

in Atrial fibrillation

Good Sunday morning friends.

Yesterday brought the news of yet another important breakthrough in the treatment of AF.

Apixaban, another non-warfarin blood-thinner, the third all told, was found to be both superior to warfarin in preventing strokes, associated with less bleeding and had no significant side effects.

There’s a lot of data to digest. I’m working on a post today.

Exciting stuff for AF people.
