Abstract

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhytmia and a majör risk factor for ischemic stroke. Warfarin, a vitamin K Antagonist, is used to reduce the risk of ischemic stroke and peripheral embolism in patients with AF for many years. Since warfarin has some inherent limitations including narrow therapeutic range, the need of regular monitoring of its anticoagulatory effect, and drug-food and drug-drug interactions a variety of novel anticoagulants have recently been developed. These novel anticoagulants ma- inly include factor Xa inhibitors (rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban) and direct thrombin antagonists (dabigatran). In this report we present a review of current literatüre about pharmacologic properties and clinical use of new anticoagulants.

Özet

Atriyal fibrilasyon en sık görülen kardiyak ritim bozukluğudur ve inme için majör bir risk faktörüdür. Vitamin K antagonisti olan warfarin uzun yıllardır atriyal fibrilasyonlu hastalarda iskemik inme ve periferik emboliyi azaltmada kullanılan bir antikoagülan ilaçtır. Warfarin kullanımının, dar tedavi penceresine sahip olması, antikoagülan etkisinin düzenli takip gerektirmesi ve birçok yiyecek ve ilaçlarla etkileşime girmesi gibi kısıtlılıklar içermesi sebebi ile son zamanlarda yeni oral antikoagülanlar geliştirilmiştir. Yeni oral antikoa- gülan ilaçlar, faktör Xa inhibitörleri (rivaroxaban, apixaban ve edoxaban) ve direkt trombin antagonistleri (dabigatran) olmak üzere iki ana gruba ayrılmaktadır. Bu yazımızda yeni oral antikoagülan ilaçların farmakolojik özellikleri ve klinik kullanımlarından literatür eşliğinde bahsedilecektir.
