abstract

  • This review provides the rationale for dual pathway inhibition with the combination of low-dose rivaroxaban (2.5 mg twice daily) to attenuate thrombin generation and aspirin (100 mg once daily) to reduce platelet activation. Such therapy has been licensed for secondary prevention in patients with coronary or peripheral artery disease.
