Goodbye Everyone


Rather than just disappear, I'd like to say thanks to everyone who gave me help, taught me stuff, the many friendly members.

I'm a bit late, a year or so, par for the course. For what it's worth, Elliot, when I see your name I always read. Same for maybe a dozen others. Glad to see you still here.

@lewm You write, "Pradax is contraindicated in patients with AF, per an FDA directive"

But I read the product monograph differently. It reads, 

PRADAXA (dabigatran etexilate) is indicated for the:

 prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation, in whom anticoagulation is appropriate

Were you perhaps thinking of this?

Concomitant use of PRADAXA with an antithrombotic is not recommended for prevention of cardiogenic thromboembolic stroke in AF patients.
