A potentially serious drug interaction between diltiazem and apixaban or rivaroxaban has been reported in US Medicare patients taking these drugs together for atrial fibrillation. The study compared serious bleeding risk for new users of apixaban or rivaroxaban with atrial fibrillation treated with diltiazem or metoprolol.
