Antiplatelet therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and acute coronary syndrome is associated with complex decisions regarding the duration of “triple” therapy, choice of one from oral anticoagulants, and other factors. Clinical trial data show that although patients should receive “triple” therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention and stenting, its duration should be minimized by switching to a direct oral anticoagulant plus P2Y12 inhibitor. AUGUSTUS study demonstrated that early (approximately 7 days after percutaneous coronary intervention) switching from “triple” antiplatelet therapy to apixaban (in the usual dose for AF) and P2Y12 inhibitor should be the strategy of choice in many patients. This article discusses some of the nuances of managing patients with acute coronary syndrome and AF with a high risk of bleeding and/or high ischemic risk. Choosing apixaban as a first-line remedy for such kind of patients, its favorable efficacy and safety profile, even in case of high hemorrhagic and/or ischemic risk is justified.
