Abstract
Dronedarone exerts direct anticoagulant and antiplatelet effects on human blood in vitro that are independent of its antiarrhythmic actions. This suggests the reductions in ischemic events reported with dronedarone may not be due to amelioration of AF itself. Additional clinical studies are required to further improve understanding of the mechanisms involved.
