Edoxaban, sold under the brand name Lixiana among others, is an anticoagulant medication and a direct factor Xa inhibitor. It is taken by mouth.
Compared with warfarin, it has fewer drug interactions, and does not require regular assessment of blood samples for prothrombin time to assure safe anticoagulant therapy.
