My father in law's pill storage situation is so great. There's gabapentin and apixaban in there 👍

This is what we were waiting for. A direct comparison between apixaban and rivaroxaban for the treatment of acute VTE. Apixaban reduces bleeding risk in the first 3 months by >50%!

our lab recently got the ability to check quantitative apixaban levels
results are often shocking
sometimes: patient “on apixaban” has zero level
sometimes: patient who has been off apixaban for days still has a huge level (renal, hepatic dysfunx, elderly)
(more: emcrit.org/ibcc/heparin...)

In the API-CAT trial involving patients with active cancer and venous thromboembolism, extended anticoagulation with reduced-dose apixaban was noninferior to full-dose apixaban for preventing recurrent thromboembolic events. Full results: nej.md/41YkRZK

Important paper: In patients with cancer and venous thrombosis, extended anticoagulation with low dose Apixaban is as good as full dose Apixaban in preventing thrombosis recurrence and is associated with less bleeding. tinyurl.com/yyfuan35

I take 10mg of apixaban every day and if I don't, my blood will try to clot in my veins and kill me like it's tried to do twice already.

Everyone will eventually be dependent on medication for life unless they die in an accident
Isn't everyone with access to medical care a "lifelong patient?" I get that for many people there are stretches of their lives where they don't need direct medical intervention, but I don't think that's a majority of the typical person's life. Like, count the average person's pills past 45 years old

Apixaban and rivaroxaban are the most frequently used oral anticoagulants for acute venous thromboembolism, but data on the difference in bleeding risk between the drugs are lacking. Research findings from the COBRRA trial are summarized in a new Quick Take video. nej.md/4s7VOze

Elderly woman on blood thinner here, specifically apixaban. Bruising is not unusual, and in my experience appears mild. I do believe he meets the DSM criteria for narcissistic personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder. Maybe that's something reporters should be investigating?

any pearls/pitfalls on the use of quantitative apixaban levels?

Man in his 60s seeking ED for exertional dyspnea. Vitals unremarkable except HR 120. On Apixaban for earlier PE. Swears that he takes them. Leukocytes 13, CRP 104. Probe on #pocusky Still swears that he takes his Apixaban. Only after CT shows bilateral large PEs did he confess… #emimcc

Whenever I take my twice a day apixaban I like to imagine that when an embolism starts to form, the apixaban shakes its clenched fist and makes a verbal threat and then the emboli disperse and run away

Thrilled to take a break from doom and gloom to share our latest work collaborating with the DeGrado lab! We took a de novo designed protein, screened it for ligand binding using X-rays, and used the hits to evolve two wildly different functions: fluorescent turn-on and Kemp elimination catalysis. 🧵

Hör mir auf mit Löchern im Ventrikel. Krieg da sofort Flashbacks von epikardialen Ablationen, wo die Rhythmologen es geil fanden, Apixaban morgens noch zu geben.
Tja. Sie haben in den RV gepiekst.
Nach 6 EKs kam der Herzchirurg.
Sternotomie unter Apixaban therapeutisch macht nicht glücklich.

Call from doctor: "Why did you fill Eliquis when I wrote a prescription for apixaban?"
'Cuz Eliquis is apixaban?
"No I wanted them to get the generic since the brand is so expensive!"
Well... Okay, but the prescription will expire before I can get the generic... In 2027/2028. 😅
