Summary

This study tests whether one-on-one education from a trained pharmacist can help people with atrial fibrillation take their blood thinners (DOACs) as prescribed. About 400 patients will either receive this extra support or usual care. The goal is to see if the education improves medication adherence and reduces stroke risk.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
pharmacist-led education program
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that simple pharmacist education helps patients take their blood thinners more consistently, reducing stroke risk.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral study, not a drug trial. Results depend on patient engagement and may not apply to all populations. The benefit may be modest.

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.
