Treatment SummaryEdoxaban is a type of medicine called a Novel Oral Anti-Coagulant (NOAC). It helps prevent blood clots by inhibiting a key protein in the coagulation cascade, called factor Xa. It is used to reduce the risk of stroke in people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation and to treat deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Edoxaban is preferred over warfarin because it starts working quickly, is easier to take and monitor, and has fewer side effects.
