Are There Alternatives to Warfarin for Cancer Patients?

Yes, there are alternatives to Warfarin, such as low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and newer oral anticoagulants like apixaban, rivaroxaban, and edoxaban. These alternatives are often preferred due to their predictable pharmacokinetics and fewer dietary restrictions compared to Warfarin. However, the choice of anticoagulant depends on individual patient factors, including kidney function, risk of bleeding, and patient preference.
