Question #PharmSky
82 y.o patient, SCr > 1.5, 49kg on warfarin for AT3 deficiency, multiple VTEs, last in 2018
MD adamant to load with Eliquis and treat as acute VTE, I recommended 2.5mg BID
Data isnβt very robust for DOACs in this condition, but no reason to load or treat this as acute, right?
Phenobarbital! Ketamine a close second
