  • Title: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs).
    Author: Vazquez S, Rondina MT.
    Journal: Vasc Med; 2015 Dec; 20(6):575-7. PubMed ID: 26285587.
    Abstract:
    DOACs are a new group of blood-thinner medications that may have some advantages over warfarin. A health care provider will look at several different factors to help patients decide if a DOAC is a good choice. Patients taking DOACs should discuss medication changes, a plan for taking the DOAC before and after a surgery, and any bleeding side effects with their health care provider.
