For the estimated 5 million people in the United States with AF, several treatment approaches are used, each with a wide range of pharmacological options. The established guidelines recommend the use of rate control and rhythm control strategies to establish a normal sinus rhythm, accompanied by use of antithrombotic therapy for stroke risk reduction. This report provides a quantitative analysis of treatment patterns and patient share by line of therapy as well as progression between lines, duration of treatment, and use of concomitant treatment for newly diagnosed AF patients. It also quantifies a drug’s source of business and details which drugs precede others through an analysis of add-versus-switch patterns for recently treated patients.
