Serious: Vfib, retroperitoneal/intracranial bleeding Factor Xa Inhibitors: Reversible and selective active site inhibitor of Factor Xa, resulting in decreased thrombin generation and thrombus formation. If patient is 80 years or older and weighs 60 kg or less or DVT/PE Treatment and has a SCr of 1.5 or more, reduce the dose to 2.5mg BID Prevention in Nonvalvular A-Fib Apixaban Eliquis R PO Nonvalvular A-Fib (Reduce Avoid grapefruit juice Stroke Risk) Andexanet alfa (Andexxa), Prothrombin complex Bleeding risk concentrate (Kcentra)= antidotes Premature Discontinuation, Common: bleeding Active Bleeding CYP3A4 inx Spinal/Epidural Hematoma Serious: GI bleeding, hemorrhage, increased LFT's DVT/PE Treatment and PGP inx Prevention Administer 15 and 20mg tablets with food Nonvalvular A-Fib (Reduce Edoxaban is an alternative agent Rivaroxaban Xarelto R PO Stroke Risk) Andexanet alfa (Andexxa), Prothrombin complex Risk reduction of major CVD concentrate (Kcentra)=antidotes events in CAD/PAD Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitor: inhibits platelet aggregation by specifically binding to GPIIb/IIIa and preventing fibrinogen CVA within 30 days, active Common: chest pain, hypotension, injection site abnormal bleeding, Percutaneous coronary reaction, hemorrhage, NV Eptifibatide Integrilin R IV surgery/trauma within 6 weeks, Bleeding risk Alternative IV agent: abciximab (no longer in market) intervention, adjunct Serious: thrombocytopenia, anaphylaxis, CVA, severe HTN (SBP >200 mm Hg or intercranial hemorrhage DBP>110mm Hg), renal dialysis Unfractioned Heparin: Binds to antithrombin (AT), which then inactivates thrombin (Factor IIa) and Factor Xa.

Acute ischemic stoke, PE, Alteplase Activase N IV, injection Risk of bleeding Bleeding risk STEMI Serious: arrhythmias, intracranial hemorrhage, Tenecteplase TNKase STEMI N IV Risk of bleeding angioedema Bleeding risk Reteplase Retavase STEMI N IV Risk of bleeding Bleeding risk urine volume and increases osmolality. Can also cause smooth muscle contraction in the GI tract by V1 stimulus which releases prolactin and ACTH via V3 receptor.
