AbstractNew oral anticoagulants are already or will be soon available. They have shown good efficacy and safety in various studies (prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism, atrial fibrillation). Their arrival will probably modify the prescription of the current anticoagulant agents. However some precaution should be given in their use pending post marketing studies. Although these new drugs are intended to replace mostly vitamin K antagonists, a place will remain for "old" anticoagulants during the next years.
