18 Slide 52 Dabigatran and Dronedarone Interaction- Induced Bleeding: Study Conclusions Conclusion: Similar likelihood of reporting bleeding events to FAERS among patients using dabigatran alone vs. dabigatran + dronedarone Limitations: Data from FAERS limited by reporting Renal function not reported dosing cannot be evaluated Applicability to Practice: Trial limited by reporting follow package insert recommendations J Am Pharm Assoc. 2013;53: Slide 53 Dabigatran and Amiodarone Interaction- Induced Coagulopathy Case: 82 year old female presents with nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and weakness Medications: dabigatran (150 BID), amiodarone, carvedilol, simvastatin, furosemide Basic Metabolic Panel: SCr 1.78 /dl increased from 1 /dl 1-week prior BUN 40 /dl increased from 20 /dl 1-week prior Coagulation Panel: INR: 7.25 (1) PTT: 135 seconds (25-35 seconds) Fibrinogen: 80 /dl ( /dl) Thrombin Time: 120 seconds (<20 seconds) Indicates acute kidney injury possibly due to dehydration Indicates excess anticoagulation secondary to dabigatran N Z Med J Mar 1;126:110-2 Slide 54 Dabigatran and Amiodarone Interaction- Induced Coagulopathy Continued Possible cause of excess anticoagulation: Acute kidney injury (SCr increase to >1.5 times baseline) Concomitant amiodarone use Result: clearance and exposure to dabigatran Evidence of excess dabigatran exposure: Abnormal INR, PTT, fibrinogen level, and thrombin time Thrombin time and ecarin clotting time are most sensitive clotting assays for dabigatran activity in blood N Z Med J Mar 1;126:110-2

19 Slide A 58 year old male patient (CrCl 42 ml/min) will be started on anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation. He is also on phenytoin for seizures and enalapril for hypertension. His physician asks you to recommend a dose for dabigatran. You would respond the following: A. Start the patient on dabigatran 150 by mouth twice daily B. Start the patient on dabigatran 75 by mouth twice daily since the CrCl <50 ml/min C. Rivaroxaban or apixaban would be a better choice since phenytoin is a P-gp inducer and may cause dabigatran therapy to fail D. All NOACs should be avoided with phenytoin due to risk for anticoagulant therapy failure since phenytoin induces both CYP3A4 and P-gp Slide 56 A physician would like to prescribe pantoprazole to a patient on rivaroxaban. She calls you to confirm that it is okay to use a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) or H2 receptor antagonist (H2RA) with NOACs. You tell her: 56 A. It is safe to use H2RAs with NOACs but PPIs should not be used B. Both PPIs and H2RAs should be avoided with NOACs C. PPIs and H2RAs must be avoided with dabigatran only D. PPIs and H2RAs have not been shown to significantly decrease NOAC absorption and may be used with NOACs Slide 57 Drug Interactions: Warfarin vs. New Oral Anticoagulants

24 Slide 70 Conclusions Continued 70 Pharmacodynamic Interactions: NOACs have risk of bleeding if taken with other drugs that increase bleeding risk Due to lack of available lab monitoring vigilance in management of DDIs essential Pharmacogenetics may affect NOAC concentration and effect Pharmacogenetics may play a greater role in NOAC management in future Slide 71 DRUG INTERACTIONS WITH NEW ORAL ANTICOAGULANTS Michelle Friedman, B.S., Pharm.D.
