Increased Bleeding Tendency from Interaction between Rivaroxaban and Topical Miconazole: Case Report
Abstract
Novel oral anticoagulants (OAC) are being increasingly used. We describe a case of increased bleeding tendency resulting from probable drug interaction between rivaroxaban and topical miconazole. Recognition of this possible interaction is important during concomitant use to prevent adverse outcome arising from over-anticoagulation.
