The Plain Dealer's Brie Zeltner reported that the breakthrough drug Pradaxa.... which had rave reviews... was questioned by a report that came from the Cleveland Clinic in January.
She details how the 50 year old drug Warfarin - or what some people know as Coumadin - remains the overall top drug by prescription numbers at 31 million a year... but some in the health field had had hoped the invention of Pradaxa was a step forward. It turns out not only are there slight heart affects, but there is also no way to rapidly counteract the effects of Pradaxa.
