Adult indication-specific doses

Nonvalvular AF: 5 mg twice daily; use 2.5 mg twice daily when at least two apply: age >=80 years, weight <=60 kg, serum creatinine >=1.5 mg/dL. Acute DVT/PE: 10 mg twice daily for 7 days, then 5 mg twice daily. Recurrence reduction: 2.5 mg twice daily after at least 6 months of treatment.

Renal evidence limits

Do not apply the AF reduction criteria to VTE treatment. For adult VTE indications, the label specifies no renal dose change, including dialysis, but CrCl <15 and dialysis patients were not enrolled in efficacy/safety studies; recommendations rely on pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic data. AF dialysis exposure is described, but comparable stroke and bleeding outcomes remain unknown.

Historical renal bands

The book lists usual dosing with caution at GFR 30-50 mL/min. At 15-30 it retains usual dosing for non-AF indications but lists 2.5 mg twice daily for AF. Below 15 it lists cautious use and 2.5 mg twice daily for AF. These are historical UK-reference statements, not the U.S. label's AF dose-reduction algorithm.

Historical renal-replacement information

APD/CAPD: unlikely to be removed; refer to the <15 band. HD: described as not dialysed, with the same band. HDF/high-flux removal is unknown and uses the <15 band; CAV/VVHD removal is unknown and uses 15-30. The next page reports HD reducing exposure by 14%, so "not dialysed" must not be read as literally zero removal.

Locally included source-specific summary. Regimen differences are not automatically resolved.

Dosing / renal protocol and limits

This historical published correction warns against applying atrial-fibrillation dose-reduction criteria to VTE treatment. The 2.5 mg twice-daily AF reduction requires at least two of: age >=80 years, weight <=60 kg, serum creatinine >=1.5 mg/dL, not one criterion. The reply explains that the manufacturer did not recommend the same reduction for VTE.

The authors emphasize limited trial data in advanced kidney disease: AMPLIFY excluded very low clearance, while dialysis recommendations relied on pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic information. This 2018 correction supports indication separation, not a new dialysis efficacy claim or a replacement for current labeling.
