Novel Oral Anticoagulants for Acute Coronary Syndrome, Atrial Fibrillation, and Venous Thromboembolism in the EU5 | Physician & Payer Forum | EU5 | 2015
How Are Payer Policies and Physician Preferences Shaping the Prescribing Landscape?
The European oral anticoagulation market has undergone a dramatic expansion in the treatment armamentarium in recent years, with the emergence of the novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) and their approval for use in a range of indications. While the NOACs offer certain clinical and dosing advantages over the traditional mainstays of oral anticoagulation—the vitamin K antagonists (VKAs)—their relatively high cost means that the increasingly cost-conscious European markets have sought to impose certain restrictions on the use of these agents.
