description | New oral anticoagulants are effective for the prevention of thromboembolic complications in patients with atrial fibrillation, or after orthopedic surgery. The use of these drugs may be associated with the risk of bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract — a dangerous complication, which can potentially lead to death. The aim of this research was systematization and analysis of information on the interactions of new oral anticoagulants with other drugs and food products, and the identification of potentially dangerous combinations that increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. To assess the risk of a heavy bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation taking oral anticoagulants to prevent thromboembolic complications, HAS-BLED scale is used. In some cases activated partial thromboplastin time, ecarin clotting time, anti-FXa, etc. can be used to assess the effectiveness of the oral anticoagulants. Potential combinations that increase the risk of bleeding include the simultaneous administration of new oral anticoagulants with antiplatelet agents, anticoagulants, including vitamin K antagonists, unfractionated heparin, low molecular weight heparins, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antidepressants along with other drugs and foods (curcumin, grapefruit juice, peppermint, eucalyptus, etc.). The administration of proton pump inhibitors, as well as the elimination of potentially dangerous combinations of drugs and food with new oral anticoagulants, can help prevent gastrointestinal bleeding. |
