Association between Use of Pharmacokinetic-Interacting Drugs and Effectiveness and Safety of Direct Acting Oral Anticoagulants: Nested Case-Control Study
Clin Pharmacol Ther. 2021 Jul 19. doi: 10.1002/cpt.2369. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConcomitant use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and medications with inhibition/induction effect on P-gp/CYP3A might increase risk of bleeding/treatment failure, respectively. We designed a nested case-control study within a Clalit cohort of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients and a cohort of venous thromboembolic patients, new users of a DOAC (1.1.2010-24.8.2020). Propensity scores were constructed from demographic, clinical and medications at cohort entry. Each case of: 1) serious bleeding event; 2) stroke/systemic emboli (SE) in A...

Reduced Anticoagulant Effect of Dabigatran in a Patient Receiving Concomitant Phenytoin
We describe the first case report, to our knowledge, documenting a drug interaction between phenytoin and dabigatran by using laboratory measurements of dabigatran serum concentrations. A 45‐year‐old African‐American man was admitted to the inpatient cardiology service following defibrillations from his implantable cardioverter defibrillator. The patient was evaluated and received appropriate antitachycardia pacing for atrial tachyarrhythmias for an episode of ventricular tachycardia (VT), and antiarrhythmic therapy with sotalol was initiated to reduce both his AF and VT burden. On review of the patient's medications...
