Extended use of dabigatran, warfarin, or placebo in venous thromboembolism
2013
International audience; BACKGROUND: Dabigatran, which is administered in a fixed dose and does not require laboratory monitoring, may be suitable for extended treatment of venous thromboembolism. METHODS: In two double-blind, randomized trials, we compared dabigatran at a dose of 150 mg twice daily with warfarin (active-control study) or with placebo (placebo-control study) in patients with venous thromboembolism who had completed at least 3 initial months of therapy. RESULTS: In the active-control study, recurrent venous thromboembolism occurred in 26 of 1430 patients in the dabigatran group (1.8%) and 18 of 1426 patients in the warfarin group (1.3%) (hazard ratio with dabigatran, 1.44; 95…
Potential drug-drug interaction between duloxetine and acenocoumarol in a patient with Alzheimer's disease
2007
Abstract Background : Recent evidence suggests that duloxetine may increase the effect of warfarin, thereby increasing the possibility of bleeding. However, a MEDLINE search for articles published between 1980 and May 2007 (terms: duloxetine , anticoagulants , acenocoumarol , and interaction ; no language restriction) did not yield any reports of an interaction between concomitant use of duloxetine and acenocoumarol. Objective : The aim of this study was to describe a potential drug-drug interaction between duloxetine and acenocoumarol in a patient with Alzheimer's disease. The possible mechanism of this potential interaction is examined. Case summary : This report presents the case of a 63…
