Prevention of Thromboembolism in Atrial Fibrillation
"I&#039;ve taken Pradaxa for two weeks and have seen a great reduction in the soreness in my joints and muscles vs Coumadin.  I have also seen a steady improvement in my stamina levels.  I also believe small nicks and cuts heal a little faster and bleeding is not quite as pronounced as with Coumadin when you do accidentally nick yourself.  I haven&#039;t experienced any digestive problems as listed as a side effect.  It may be too soon the pass judgment on this drug because of the short time I&#039;ve taken it.  

The only negative I&#039;ve found so far is the expense of Pradaxa. It is SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than Coumadin and I hope the manufacturer of this drug will work to reduce the cost so more people can benefit from it."
